He did post on his blog today that he is finally done with "The World of Ice and Fire" which he wrote with the people who run westeros.org. This was announced back in 2007 and is supposes to be be out in the fall so at least it's one more thing out of the way.

This thread should really be broken up into a seperate thread for each of the books, but I guess it is too late for that now. Maybe going forward.
I am about halfway through the third book, and am just about at the end of where the TV show left off (and further in some places). When I finally catch up with the following books, I'll have to come back and read through the thread, but for now, there is too much of a chance of catching a spoiler.

I think I started reading the series after AFFC had a release date, so hats off to those who have been with it since the beginning. The AFFC pre-release thread is a gold. The dude is really slow now.

New sample chapter up on GRRM's website
I just read it and was pretty underwhelmed. He is really starting to ramble in some of these chapters, does he really need 6 paragraphs to describe the fog during this persons walk from where they live to their destination?

I liked it. Sure, he rambles, but GRRM does a damn fine job of creating an entertaining picture in your mind's eye.

With as big as these books are and as long between them, the books should all start with a chapter summing up the story so far, ie key plot points and where characters are. A kind of "Previously in Westeros" chapter.

It'd be a fun contest just to see who could do the best job of it in only a few pages.

The problem with a chapter like that is, with Martin writing it, it would end up being 400 pages.

There are several people out there with that theory. Interestingly, I've been reading the TWoP forums for the TV Show, and in the unspoiled speculation thread someones mentioned they think that Lyanna and Rhaegar had an affair, though they didn't draw the conclusion that Jon could have been their child.

Nice, glad to see they put them back into print for the comic versions too (and announced the 3rd).

There's a new anthology of short stories by GRRM (and various authors) released last month that takes place in the world of Ice & Fire. Has anyone read Rogues?

It's only been three years since the last one came out. Dragons took six, and he was halfway done with that when Crows came out. I wouldn't expect Winter until 2020 at the earliest.
