Apologies for the slightly off-topic post…

It’s not looking good, folks…

George R R Martin confirms he hasn’t written anything for the 2 remaining A Song Of Ice And Fire books since 2022.

He wishes that they were finished.

The last published book in the series, A Dance With Dragons, was published in July 2011, now 13 years ago.

Obligatory song that’s now 12 years old… https://youtu.be/j7lp3RhzfgI

    What if the ending to show is actually really, really similar to the ending of the books? I’ve seen theories floated about how certain book-only events might make it more satisfying even if the broad strokes (Bran becoming king etc) are the same - but damn seeing people completely reject your series conclusion would take the wind out of anyone’s sails.

      I’m fairly sure the show ending is the ending of the book, but the directors rushed it. Martin is still thinking of a way trying to get from Book 5 to that ending.
