I'm no literary savant, what is it about the Stoneheart storyline that is poor writing? I personally love how her personality shift isn't as big as it seems and can be explained simply by her believing that her entire family is dead.
At first glance, she seems to be an entirely different character when she rises, but the difference between protective mother and murderous monster for her is simply having a family to protect.
IMO, of course.
