The Winds of Winter
The Winds of Winter | George R. R. Martin
68 posts | 18 read | 119 to read
Continuing the most imaginative and ambitious epic fantasy since The Lord of the Rings Winter has come at last and no man can say whether it will ever go again. The Wall is broken, the cold dead legions are coming south, and the people of the Seven Kingdoms turn to their queen to protect them. But Daenerys Targaryen is learning what Robert Baratheon learned before her; that it is one thing to win a throne and quite another to sit on one. Before she can hope to defeat the Others, Dany knows she must unite the broken realm behind her. Wolf and lion must hunt together, maester and greenseer work as one, all the blood feuds must be put aside, the bitter rivals and sowrn enemies join hands. The Winds of Winter tells the story of Dany's fight to save her new-won kingdom, of two desperate journeys beyond the known world in to the very hearts of ice and fire, and of the final clomactic battle at Winterfell, with life itself in the balance.

I wish this wasn‘t a real quote. He finishes by saying I‘m alive, I‘m vital. Come on George, and Patrick for that matter. #readingwesteros

5feet.of.fury He‘s had it with fans 😂 just give us the book you infuriating man 2w
RamsFan1963 This is why I quit reading the series after the 4th book. I'm 61 and I get the feeling one of us isn't going to live to see the end of the series. 2w
BethM @5feet.of.fury amen sister! @RamsFan1963 😂honestly I thought book 5 was not good in comparison. 2w
DogMomIrene Ugh. I stopped after book 3 and just enjoyed the HBO series. I really do wish Patrick would publish his book 3 though. So many questions! 2w

Oh man, I just checked my GR account and.... The Winds of Winter, George R.R. Martin, added: 12/21/2013

I feel like this is a thing. I don't know what kind of thing, but it's a thing.

So happy with how my "Winter is Coming" shawl turned out! I can't wait to give it to my friend and see what she thinks. #knittersoflitsy

Come-read-with-me @WhatWouldJaneDo It is a challenge, but this is sumptuous! It makes me want to move back to a climate where I can wear something like it. You did a gorgeous job. 5y
WhatWouldJaneDo @Come-read-with-me it's fairly light so it will work for our Texas winters. I visited family in Maine a few weeks ago and my aunt and I were discussing the differences in our knitting - down here my knitter friends and I mostly make decorative pieces and she's always going for warm wool utility. 5y
Come-read-with-me @WhatWouldJaneDo Good point. I grew up in Western Canada, so warmth was what I aimed for. Now I live in Southern California and can‘t get off the warmth idea!! Time for a 🧶 reset! 5y
WhatWouldJaneDo @Come-read-with-me yep there are a ton of cool fibers and patterns to keep up with the hobby in any climate! This is the Wild at Heart pattern by Megan Macko, it's free on Ravelry. I also did the stripe version for myself so I'll post a pic of that one once it's done blocking. 5y

Thank you to the MVPs of the realm for lighting the way. Seriously could not see what was going on the battlefield without you.

sudi Oh my god, this is so true. I tried increasing the brightness and contrast but nothing, guess they really spent all their budget on dragons. Cause we got no elephants and bad cinematography 😑 6y
SconsinBookyBadger @sudi I had that one tiny candle in this pic lit up and even that interfered with the visibility. Apparently reading up on the comments through social media land Monday morning, watching the episode in complete darkness was the solution. 😐 Ah the cgi budget, talk about dragons eat whatever they want. no elephants 🐘 and a 5 second sighting of Ghost 🐺. 6y
sudi @AnansiGirl i was squinting my eyes at the tv screen throughout the episode 😕. I didn't even see ghost, i was scrolling through social media and then found out ghost survived 6y
SconsinBookyBadger @sudi he was by Jorah Mormont‘s side and ran out with the Dothraki. Really, really hope social media is being truthful and the goodest boy of Westeros did survive. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 6y
sudi @AnansiGirl i just checked the preview for episode 4 and he survived . But it seems like Cersei's idea to just sit back and watch worked. Most of the Unsullied and Dothraki are dead, Winterfell suffered a lot of damage and Cersei also had the dragon killkng machine. Chances for Daenerys to take the Iron Throne seem dim. 6y

Kalalalatja @sudi @Literary_Siren @TrishB @Reviewsbylola @Melissa_J to be fair, I get if the man is feeling the pressure. The TV series has become cannon now, so everything he writes will be compared to it, and not the other way around as normal. 🤷‍♀️ @emilyhaldi the man definitely knows how to procrastinate! 6y
Mdargusch He needs to get on it! 6y
emilyhaldi Very fair point!!! That has to be stressful😅 6y
TorieStorieS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 6y
bookandcat He said recently that writing for it is going very well right now. I think he had writer's block for a bit (probably due to show pressure which is now alleviated as it ends) and also had a lot of backstory and mapping to do which is how we ended up with the monster book that is Fire and Blood. 6y
Kalalalatja @bookandcat that‘s good news, but I still need to see before I believe it 😅 6y

2. 75 degrees, sunny, with a light breeze
3. I don‘t know. I don‘t have a thermostat in my apartment; I don‘t control the heat. Fortunately it‘s toasty.

Whatever GRRM does now, he will forever be compared to the tv series, and most likely get criticised, because the tv series has become canon now.. @Wife I know what you mean, but I‘m a completeist, I need to finish it 😄 7y
Kalalalatja @julesG @Avidreader25 and that‘s exactly why I haven‘t started reading Rothfuss yet 😄😄 @Gharv right?! How hard can it be to write a 1500+ pages of intricate fantasy drama, with multiple characters who have all kinds of weird ties. No big deal 😂 7y
Gharv @Kalalalatja no kidding! 😂😂😂 7y
SandyW I've moved my GOT allegiance to HBO. They've done a remarkably good job, and by the time GRRM gets the next book out I'd have to do a re read of virtually the entire series... I get it's a process, but authors need to be fair to their audience too. 7y
Gharv Everyone, I‘d love to hear suggestions for other series that you consider to be similar to GOT 7y
Kalalalatja @Gharv this might be stretching it, but The Tudors with Jonathan Rhys Myers reminds me a bit if GoT because of all the drama. No dragons though 🤷‍♀️ 7y

Liatrek I was so happy to see the way things played out for little finger. It was his time to go and the ladies played it beautifully. 7y
Liatrek Am I the only one who really didn't want Dany and Jon to hook up? I think they will both be devastated by the news. 7y

Liatrek And wow Ice Dragons!!!!! 7y
swishandflick I don't know - the Targaryen's have a history of keeping it in the family so it may be a workable situation (even if it's cringy, obviously). I have a strong suspicion that by the time they get the news, Danaerys will already be pregnant. Felt like they kept bringing up the "can she or can't she have kids" question ? 7y
Liatrek @swishandflick Very true! Overall I was happy with the finale. Just not looking forward to the wait☹️ 7y
EchoLogical @swishandflick OMG yes. They kept bringing it up. I've never liked Jamie. He's made his bed and now he's got to lie in it. I feel bad for Tormund. I think he'll be the first person to die next season. He and Brienne will never get to make those giant babies. 😭 7y
Dragon I'm not keen on Jon's new first name, but I've been telling everyone at work for literally years that he's the true heir to the Iron Throne 😀🐉 I can't believe I missed the Little Finger execution, I left the room for a minute, grrr - rewatching tomorrow. 7y
Liatrek @EchoLogical I know 😭😭 but they didn't show him die so I have hope. 7y

I did not want to go gently into the night in regards to that revelation but I agree with the author of this article. I'm tempted to write my own fanfiction ending at this point.

Gezemice I have resigned myself that I have to watch the series to finish the story. I love both but I hoped for a book, too. Maybe someone else will write it. 7y
cariashley Argggghhhhh 😩🙄😖 7y

TheNextBook @sprainedbrain @Gezemice @cariashley I am losing interest the more I watch the show because I know this will end in 10 more episodes while the books may take 10 more years. I dont have time for that. 7y
TheNextBook And these books are too damn long to keep reading with no end in sight! 7y
stargazerblue49 Lol, GRRM is such an arsehole! 😂😂😂 7y
TheNextBook @stargazerblue49 right! I mean come on! 7y
Hooked_on_books You should definitely write your own ending! I'd read it. 7y
TheNextBook @Hooked_on_books if it happens I will let you know! Because this! I know what I want to happen! 7y
underthebelljar Ugh 😒 yeah I've given up on the Winds of Winter too. If he ever does publish it I'll be happy but I'm not counting on it anymore. I'll read your fanfic ending though! 😉 7y
TheNextBook @BookishJess You guys are making me want to try! It might happen 7y

I don't quite know if I would call this good news, but it's news. As someone who likes to be able to binge read a series, splitting up a much anticipated book into two parts doesn't always make me happy. But at least it's progress!

Mtroiano Finally! (Maybe, not getting my hopes up 😂😆😩😭) 7y
Mtroiano I'm reading "could be" as probably not since WoW was originally set to come out in... 2015? 7y
stargazerblue49 @Mtroiano The article I read made it sound like he's planning on releasing one volume of Fire and Blood next tear and hoping to release WoW as well, but not too sure. Lol 7y

Mtroiano He's killing me 💀 7y
TheBookStacker By the time I get to those books they'll both be out lol I just started the first book! 7y
underthebelljar I hope this turns out to be true! 😭 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 He's waited way too long to finish this series. And to let the show go on without the books!! It's maddening 😒 I hope this is true & the next book will be out soon. I love this series, but to make his fans wait sooooo long! 7y
TheNextBook I am pissed... 7y

I was really torn between a dragon, a direwolf, and a kraken. Can't I be a #GOT version of Snow White and rule all the creatures?

MaleficentBookDragon @cobwebmoth @MinDea Maybe I need to change my #Litsy handle.🤣🐲🐉 7y
MinDea @Riveted_Reader_Melissa and @BarbaraTheBibliophage I thought for sure I would have gotten House Targaryen, but was surprised by the results! I mean I picked Dragons and Freedom! 7y
MinDea @MaleficentBookDragon WildlingBookDragon?! 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @MinDea I'm guessing freedom puts you with the free folk... 7y
MinDea @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I think you might be right! 7y
cobwebmoth @MinDea I do love Jon Snow... 7y

LeeRHarry Targaryen ....I'm thinking because I chose a dragon 😊 #winteriscoming 7y
KathyWheeler Lannister. I'm not sure why. 7y
Laura317 I got Lannister, too. I guess because of the lion? 7y

KarenUK I got Stark... 🌨❄️👍 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @KarenUK @Books_Wine_Repeat Stark was my other choice. If I could have Eddard too. 7y
KathyWheeler @Books_Wine_Repeat And I do love Tyrion. 😊 7y
Books_Wine_Repeat @KathyWheeler He's my favorite! Although I did cheer on Cersei when she went wildfire crazy. 🔥🔥 7y

YOU CANNOT TELL ME ANYTHING WHEN IT COMES TO THE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CINEMATAGROPHY OF GAME OF THRONES! (Except for season 5. We can forget season 5 ever happened) The rewatch is real! One episode left!

GRRM vent time: finish the damn books George!

TrishB We're all so ready in our house 😀 7y
WhatDeeReads BATTLE OF THE BASTARDS!!! Yes!!! 7y
TheNextBook @TrishB so ready! Less than a week! 7y

TheNextBook @WhatDeeReads Yes Dee!!! This episode was just incredible. 7y
WhatDeeReads @TheNextBook It was flawlessly shot. Now, story wise... eh. But gorgeous. 7y
TheNextBook @WhatDeeReads Flawlessly! I was so glad to see Ramsay out of here. The only thing more glorious was the sept explosion to follow! I was so over both of those damn story lines! Both were major reasons why I hated Season 5 with a passion! 7y
WhatDeeReads @TheNextBook Dark Cersei blowing up the crept while drinking wine was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen on television. I did not love how Ramsey died. I'm glad he's gone. I miss Margery, though. 7y
TheNextBook @WhatDeeReads I cannot tell you how many times I watched the opening of the finale! With the piano, organ and cello in the background. I could not get enough. And I hate Cersei but still. I thought Ramsay got the end he deserved. He fell own his own sword. It was hard to watch but after seeing the Stark Banner back up I was ready for it. 7y

With two weeks to go before Season 7 premieres, it's time to start rewatching/binge watching Season 6. Winter is coming!! 😱💀🐲🔥❄️⚔️#GoT #bingewatch

Edit: I'll be starting with Season 1 Episode 1 because. That's all. Because. 🐺🦌🦁🐉

BekahB I need to watch season 6. I couldn't make myself watch it as it was airing because season 5 was so depressing. But I need to watch it before season 7 starts! 7y
Books_Wine_Repeat @BekahB Season 6 isn't much better. No happily ever afters. Still it's so good!!! 7y
vivastory Season 6 was amazing. There were so many moments where I was excitedly waving my arms around & losing my mind. 7y

Books_Wine_Repeat @vivastory So I started the episode and I made it through the 'previously on' portion and knew I had to go back and watch ALL OF IT!! Season 6 was so unbelievably good! Every episode was mind blowing! Btw I have never cried so much as I did in season 6, The Door episode. 😨💔😭😭😭 7y
Scurvygirl @Books_Wine_Repeat @vivastory Season 6 is a mindblower! "The door"! I rewatch all of them a few times a year, it's a problem, I know, I'm working on it. Enjoy your binge. 7y

*clears throat, stands on soapbox, begins screaming loudly*

I MEAN FFS! FINISH THE DAMN BOOKS! IF I HAD BEEN READING THESE BOOKS FOR OVER A DECADE I WOULD BE LOSING MY MIND RIGHT NOW! FINISH THE BOOKS! YES THE SHOW IS AMAZING, AND HONESTLY RIGHT NOW IT IS OVERSHADOWING YOUR BOOKS AND THAT IS A SHAME BECAUSE YOUR BOOKS ARE F!$&KING AMAZING!!! WHY WOULD YOU LET THE TV ADAPTATIONS OF YOUR BOOKS OUTSHINE YOUR BOOKS!

*grabs soapbox, stomps away mad*

Books_Wine_Repeat YES!!! 👏👏👏 8y
Hooked_on_books I agree! Lock him in a room and don't let him out until it's done! 8y
Librarianaut Sometimes I think maybe he's not finishing them just because he gets a kick out of watching all us fankidz freak out...😂 8y

TheNextBook @Books_Wine_Repeat @Hooked_on_books @Librarianaut I am at my wit's end!!! Why would you want to dedicate so much time to a show, that has gone off on its own tangent for the most part, then work on a story you have been perfecting for decades. I don't get it! 8y
sprainedbrain Agree! This is beyond ridiculous. 8y
LectricSheep Maybe he doesn't know how to end it. 😶 8y
cariashley Agree!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄 8y
hlgreenfield I started reading these books right after the 4th one was published! It's been over 10 years and it's so annoying. I accept that sometimes writing takes time and GRRM definitely likes to take his time, but this is ridiculous! He spends loads of time working on other projects so it's kinda disrespectful to the readers! I'm honestly giving up hope of ever knowing how this ends! 8y

The only episode of Game of Thrones that I've ever watched included the Battle of the Bastards, which pretty much sums up the #WeaponsReady sentiment. #WhatAWayToLive #PiratesLife

wrenaymuhree I 💙 this book and tv series. So much. 8y
CrowCAH Haven't gotten to this episode yet, started season four tonight, so I'll get there soon enough. Definitely helpful to have your weapon ready for battle!!! 8y
