2 - Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring are being written at the same time. Same manuscript, thousands of pages and everything is a mess. It's possible because of the different POVs. Seven POV's die, plus the Prologue/Epilogue POV, which are: Cersei, Barristan, Asha, JonCon, Aeron, Victarion, Areo, plus Sybell Spicer (Prologue) and Stannis (Epilogue). The Brotherhood attack the convoy transporting Edmure Tully. We learn of Lady Spicer’s plans about the Red Wedding, and also a BwB plannet second Red Wedding. After the credits roll, the view returns to George RR Martin sitting atop the iron throne. He turns to the camera and says, "hey viewers! Read more in The Winds of Winter, available December 1!" George R.R. Martin takes a lot of heat for the delay of "The Winds of Winter," the planned next book in the "Game of Thrones" series, but honestly I totally get why it would take him more time to finish. Martin said on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in December 2022 he had "like 1,100, 1,200 pages" done, with 400 or 500 to go before The Winds of Winter was complete. Almost a year on, the author seemingly still has the same amount of work to be done. Emphasis mine, so I'm assuming the latter. Turns into The Wines of Winter drink selection. THE WINES OF WINTER: Arbor Gold. Redwyne. Dornish Red. Hippocras. SEASONAL SPECIALS: The Night's Watch: A Mulled wine with hints of clover and nutmeg. Served hot." What if the reason for a decade-long delay in releasing a new book is that George R.R. Martin is writing two books, 'Winds of Winter' and 'A Dream of Spring' simultaneously and plans to release the two books with a two-month gap in 2025? I’m 18 for a moment, just saw season 2 of gaaame of thrones, then read the books. Ready to wait another yeeear. I’m 23 for a moment. The big winds update was two yeeeears ago, and I forgot, most of the plot that’s not the shoooow. x8Gnw.
