[font color=white] In the books, Reek is the horrible smelling sidekick of Ramsay Snow, bastard son of Roose Bolton. Ramsay is a loose cannon who scares even his father. Ramsay forces himself on a noblewoman of the north and then forces her to marry him. Some of the other nobles of the North then rally to this woman's cause, including Lord Manderly. They hunt down Ramsay and think they killed him and also captured the sidekick Reek, who is then imprisoned at Winterfell until Robb can return. When Theon takes Winterfell, he frees Reek, who then becomes a little devil on Theon's shoulder, giving him advice. With Theon only having 30 men, he knows he can't hold Winterfell without help - Reek offers to go recruit men to help Theon. Theon thinks Reek will just abandon him, but it was worth the chance. Then, Ser Rodrik returns with like 1,000 men to surround Winterfell (different than the TV show). Then, while Theon is preparing to surrender, Reek returns outside of Winterfell with 300 or so men carrying the banner of the Dreadfort/Roose Bolton (Theon can't see this, though). Reek's men surprise Ser Rodrik and overwhelm them, killing Ser Rodrik and many others. Only Reek is revealed to really be Ramsay Snow - when he was going to be captured, Ramsay killed Reek and took his place by covering himself in excrement to trick his pursuers. A joyful Theon then lets Reek/Ramsay into Winterfell. Ramsay then proceeds to kill everybody inside Winterfell and burn the place to the ground. (The reader is left thinking Theon is about to die...)
