It seems that George R.R. Martin wants fans to suffer as the waiting period of "The Winds of Winter" might run longer.
In an article in Starz Post, the author is planning to spoil fans with a big twist. There have been many speculations on what is going to happen in the books, which greatly affects the on-going "The Winds of Winter" book. Fans also believe that the big twist involves a character that is already dead.
The author has been busy with other projects and previous engagements that he cannot finish the much awaited book. The release date for the last book is yet to be announced by George R.R. Martin himself.
Fear not, Game of Thrones' fans, although there is no exact date, we do know it is within President Trump's term. According to National, George R.R. Martin is set to release the sixth installment of the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series before President Donald Trump's term ends. Martin says that the wait will not be for another four years, but with the development of the new storyline, it can cause the release to be set back for another year or two.
The delay may have been caused by the release of a short story that is a prequel to the story. The "Sons of Dragons" is one part of the novel series that will contribute to the current knowledge about Targaryen history.
Many fans are speculating that the release of "The Winds of Winter" will be on George R.R. Martin's 70th birthday. Although this is yet to be proven, avid readers can't help but to hang on to the hope that Martin's birthday might be the release date. Looks like the author will have one more reason to celebrate and fans of the series with him.
