I would even be fine with that, as long as the book actually gets published. Jaenara Belarys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifth Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Let's be real, if GRRM said "he still has hundreds of pages to right", about a month ago and then went on vacation. He's probably nowhere close to releasing the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not enough to give me hope, but it could suggest that he’s working on some more supplementary material too. https://georgerrmartin.com/notablog/2023/12/06/a-visit-to-old-blighty/ It seems to be a routine meeting with his UK publishers, whom he hadn’t seen in a while. From what I understand, he would've had an urgent meeting with his American publishers first if there was any light at the end of the Winds tunnel.

I agree; when we hear about meeting his publishers in NYC, I get more excited, than him meeting his publishers in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed We're going to need a time skip between Winds and Dream... ...or, more specifically, a time skip between the establishment of a new status quo (Blackfyre-Martell empowered, Lannisters disgrace, Baratheon extinction, Stark resurgence) and the fall of the Wall. The fall of the Wall has to deeply disturb the brand-new status quo to be effective AND it has to happen either before Dany's arrival or right when she shows up Morte, Cas Stark and House Cambodia 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FantasyCreature Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 (edited) On 8/26/2021 at 4:21 AM, TheNecromancerofMirkwood said: He should be doing 3 books instead of 2: The Winds of Winter, A Time for Wolves and then A Dream of Spring, each no more than 1000 pages. But, that's just my opinion.... It wouldn't fit in with the all-important number, 7. Seven kingdoms (why do they still call it that if it was merged hundreds of years ago? there were never just seven kingdoms to begin with anyway), seven gods, seven books. Wait, I'm sorry, I didn't notice you said that years ago. Sheesh. Edited April 5 by FantasyCreature Spotted a mistake, kind of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he's just going to have to deal with it I guess I think he can finish the series in two books. But they will both have to be huge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want him to finish the story, best if the number of books is 7. I just like this kind of uniformity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifth Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 To this date, ADWD's is the strangest book I've ever read. You get to page 800 and still new POV characters are being introduced. There really is not book quite like it. I hope things are better structured, if Winds is ever released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
