On his not a blog, Martin recently spoke briefly, about The Winds of Winter. Although he's already hinted at the size and scope of the book in the past, I love that he's reconfirming. Fans have been waiting an eternity for this new book so the more material we get the better! He could make the book 2,000 pages and I would still devour it. George's writing is excellent and I feel like his prose improves with each new book release. I know some people were critical of Feast of Crows and Dance with Dragons but I personally found those books to be as high quality as the earlier entries. The big issue that many fans had with those is that their favorite characters were mostly split between the two books. By making The Winds of Winter longer hopefully George has solved this issue and will be able to consolidate the different perspectives into one book. I highly suspect that he's done just that.

The Rise of The Dragon is basically an illustrated, condensed version of FIRE & BLOOD Lavish visual history of house of Targaryen Featuring over 180 all-new illustrations This book will be similar to The World of Ice and Fire I personally can't wait for this book. I love artwork. And The World of Ice and Fire was perfect for me. Source

Since I've read a number of Martin's posts on his Not a Blog on his personal website I know that he writes and rewrites chapters all the time. So this does not surprise. What does surprise me is that somehow two draft chapters from A Feast For Crows about Brienne were supposedly published in Russia. That sounds a bit fishy to me but I suppose its not outside the realm of possibility. Martin has always stated he knows the end game in broad strokes and he is more or less letting the garden grow and tell the journey itself. I suspect that he has always known what Brienne's fate so I doubt that he would have changed it from death to life or vice versa in a couple of sample chapters. Brienne is a POV character so I imagine her death will be quite dramatic. That being said I feel she is more of a minor POV, which has mainly served to show us what's been going on in the crownlands and surrounding areas so if there was a POV character that had their fate changed or if he was still wrestling over it would not surprise me for it to be Brienne's. Either way I'm sure we'll find out soon enough. Source

George posts a mysterious picture of a hand with eight fingers! I'm sure most fans are like me and took this as a hint that there will now be eight books not seven. But who knows if this is true! This post could be completely unrelated to a song of ice and fire. Only time will tell. I would absolutely love it if their were eight books though. It still feels like there is a ton of story left to tell.
