ronm Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 As far as a release date goes, Martin's UK publisher posted on twitter that the release date for TWOW will be "Certainly not this year". So, its 2015 if we are lucky! https://twitter.com/JaneJohnsonBakr/status/426815126818127872 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb2518 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 She said late 2015 was a possibility. Apparently, representatives at cons have been saying 2015 as well. Early to mid 2016 wouldn't shock me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking Hodor Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I kept hoping there'd be a hint to the release date in the paragraph, but I can't find one. I don't understand the significance of this particular paragraph at all at this point. It reveals basically nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messem Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Nooo. I just turned 27. So that's 3 years. But it better be in 2015 or I'm going to have to give up on old Mr. Martin It is simple marketing mathematics. When will the TV show reach the story of ADoS? Probably ~2018/19. There you have your release date of ADoS. TWoW will be released one or two years before that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baelor Swyft Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 This is almost certainly fangirl wishful-thinking, but I wonder if they're going to keep the progress under wraps and just spring it on everyone one day. Beyonce used that method for her latest record and it was very successful. It's a great way to generate publicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Behind The Wall Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I see this as 2014 for sure !!! Agreed. TWOW is certainly coming out before season 5 starts airing. So it is coming out probably towards the end of 2014 or early 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRRM releases one paragraph (from a sample he's already read, mind you) and suddenly the book must be coming out? I must be missing something.

Anarchosaurus Rex Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Woop dee doo, a paragraph from the material he pulled out of DwD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brahood Witout Manners Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I don't even consider this a tease. In fact I laugh at the implication...Hah!! I started AGoT in June 2008, read through the first 4 books in 2 months. ADWD took me 4 days. So I've been a fan of this series for approximately 2,065 days, approx 2,000 of those days have been spent waiting for new material. (I can't imagine how the poor sons of bitches who started in 97 feel...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrafntýr Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 TYRIONSomewhere off in the far distance, a dying man was screaming for his mother. “To horse!” a man was yelling in Ghiscari, in the next camp to the north of the Second Sons. “To horse! To horse!” High and shrill, his voice carried a long way in the morning air, far beyond his own encampment. Tyrion knew just enough Ghiscari to understand the words, but the fear in his voice would have been plain in any tongue. I know how he feels. So, using the Corn Code, so far as I understand it, with respect to this paragraph, we've got a clear major event code, likely involving the death of a major character. Possible clues in the surrounding text:"somewhere off in the far distance." (we've also got "a long way" and "far beyond his own encampment") In Westeros? "to the north" with Stannis? at Winterfell? at the Wall? What about the "horse"? Or "the dying man...screaming for his mother"? Anyone see clues there? I don't mean to turn this into a big discussion of the Corn Code or whether it exists. Just thinking of ways to try to read this for clues. I mean, why on earth would GRRM release just one skimpy little paragraph, and one without too much to recommend it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
