12 books to read while waiting for The Winds of Winter

It is no secret that A Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin is severely past his due date for The Winds of Winter, the sixth installation of his A Song of Ice and Fire series, so much so that the Game of Thrones television series on HBO has surpassed the book.

George R.R. Martin has insisted that he’s not purposefully dragging his feet on finishing The Winds of Winter, but it doesn’t really matter what his excuse is.

“The Winds of Winter” is undoubtedly one of the most sought after books today.

The Star may be joking when it says that The Winds of Winter release date is “maybe never”, but there certainly is a little bit of anger and frustration behind the jest, and even among the people The Star quotes in its article. According to The Star, it has been 1,809 days and counting since A Dance With Dragons was published and fans are letting him know in no uncertain terms that they want the next book – now!

At that time, Martin said he was riding a hot streak.

The pace at which Martin writes has become a subject of talk lately, as the author recently had a sit-down with a fellow wordsmith. “I was so into it”.

Other news have claimed that more deaths and bloodier scenes will be happening in “The Winds of Winter”. That’s also the title of the as-yet-unreleased sixth novel in Martin’s series. I was pushing so hard that I was writing very well. However, when season 6 of the show came sooner than the book, the fans were hesitant to watch it out of fear that it might spoil the book for them.

Even Martin was optimistic, but another year went by and no new novel from the author.

Yibada has reported that George RR Martin is now done working on “The Winds of Winter” novel.

A Halloween date was proposed, but Martin needed an extension. “You’re disappointed, and you’re not alone”.

Close to six months later, Martin is not finished with “The Winds of Winter”. “My editors and publishers are disappointed, HBO is disappointed, my agents and foreign publishers and translators are disappointed. but no one could possibly be more disappointed than me”, wrote Martin. Martin mentioned the Son of Kong in passing, but no concrete updates on its completion. Fans demanded George RR Martin to reveal some details about Damphair Greyjoy to which “The Winds of Winter” author has responded with “The Greyjoys have it – you sick motherf***ers”.
