Fans of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire — and of the mega-popular TV series that it spawned, Game of Thrones — have been waiting quite a long time for the next volume in the series, The Winds of Winter.
We learned earlier this week that Martin would be releasing a new Game of Thrones story this year, and now we know a bit more about it.
It’s now been nearly six years since the publication of the most recent full-length book, 2011’s A Dance With Dragons.
Martin said a few weeks ago that he hopes the book will be out this year.
