The Winds of Winter. The Winds of Winter is the forthcoming sixth novel in the epic fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.
R. Martin. The previous installment, A Dance with Dragons, covered less story than Martin intended, omitting at least one planned large battle sequence and leaving several character threads ending in cliffhangers.[1] Martin intends to resolve these cliffhangers "very early" in The Winds of Winter, saying "I'm going to open with the two big battles that I was building up to, the battle in the ice and the battle at Meereen—the battle of Slaver's Bay.
And then take it from there. A Victarion chapter will begin five minutes after the end of A Dance with Dragons, taking place on the eve of the Iron Islanders' surprise attack on the cities in Slaver's Bay.[3] An Arianne sample chapter that Martin released on his website shows her heading for Griffin's Roost to see the young boy who is calling himself Aegon.[4] Viewpoint characters[edit] George R.

R. Martin. The novel was first published on 17 October 2005 in the United Kingdom,[1] with a United States edition following on 8 November 2005.[2] In May 2005 Martin announced that the "sheer size" of his still-unfinished manuscript for A Feast for Crows had led him and his publishers to split the narrative into two books.[3] Rather than divide the text in half chronologically, Martin opted to instead split the material by character and location, resulting in "two novels taking place simultaneously" with different casts of characters.[3] A Feast for Crows was published months later, and the concurrent novel A Dance with Dragons was released on July 12, 2011.[4] Martin also noted that the A Song of Ice and Fire series would now likely total seven novels.[3] Plot summary[edit]
