Arya Stark was also mentioned, and, as always, she intends to kill someone. The ones he was focusing on, as of June 2020, were enemy siblings Cersei and Tyrion Lannister, Ser Barristan Selmy, Asha Greyjoy (known as Yara in the HBO TV series), and Areo Hotah, the captain of the Martell guard. With most distractions removed, and journeys abroad replaced by Zoom calls, Martin had plenty of time to spend with his characters. It looks like this might finally be paying off. While reasonably tired of living in isolation, the 71-year-old author mentioned that he is keeping a regular, if a bit dull routine and tries to stay healthy. Martin informed them that he was spending quarantine in an actual cabin… and it looks like something good might have come out of it. In a turn of events, fans would never have been able to foretell a few months earlier, George R. Over the years, many fans have yearned for Wind of Winter updates, wondering why Martin is taking so long to finish writing it. Here's some info on the five books that are out, with notes on a few major plot points from the show that happen in each of them.Could a cabin be what it takes for The Winds of Winter to come to our shelves? The books in A Song of Ice and Fire, in order, are as follows: A Game of Thrones A Clash of Kings A Storm of Swords A Feast for Crows A Dance With Dragons The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring. He recently confirmed that he's working on the last two books in the series (there are seven books in the Song of Ice and Fire series in total, five of which are out already), and he also said that the book's ending will be totally different from the show, which is happy news for fans that hated the show's ending. You may be following Jon Snow at the Wall for a chapter, only to suddenly switch to Sansa in King's Landing.Īnd while one major gripe GoT fans have with the TV series is that controversial finale-but it's something that Martin says won't be an issue for his books. One cool thing about the books is that they're told from numerous characters' perspectives, the viewpoints switching from chapter to chapter. There's plenty of fun stuff that never made it from page to screen (and okay-a few weird, convoluted storylines we're happy HBO did without).
The book series is long, complicated, and will suck you in so thoroughly, you won't remember you ever had a social life.Īnd while the HBO show followed the general plot of the book series, it also cut out a lot of characters, subplots, and other details (Lady Stoneheart, where you at?!). Still wondering what you'll do now that Game of Thrones is over? Not ready to leave Westeros quite yet? You can always lose yourself in the books the show is based on-while most GoT fans know this, some might be unaware that before all your favorite Game of Thrones characters were on HBO, they appeared in the pages of George R.
