There are some slight differences between the TV portrayal and the book version of Robb . Due to the child characters' ages being increased, Robb's age is changed from 14 to 17 years old at the start of the series . Instead of marrying Jeyne Westering (as in the novels), he marries a healer from Volantis named Talisa Maegyr, who is also killed during the Red Wedding . And while Robb is a background character in the books, not having any chapters told from his perspective, he is listed ahead of Michelle Fairley, who plays POV character Catelyn Stark in the books, in the opening credits of many episodes, and we see the Stark's storyline in Seasons 2 and 3 revolve more around Robb in the viewers' eyes as opposed to the readers' . </P> <P> James Poniewozik comments on Madden's performance in "The Pointy End" in Time, saying "both the script and Richard Madden show in deft, quick strokes how the crisis focuses him . (This is another case where having a live actor does a better job of showing a transition that seemed more abrupt in the book .)" </P>
