Subj : winds of winter.. soon To : All From : August Abolins Date : Fri Jul 09 2021 22:16:00 George RR Martin released an exerpt of the upcoming conclusion to the Song of Ice & Fire [Games of Thrones] series, The Winds of Winter. https://georgerrmartin.com/excerpt-from-the-winds-of-winter/ I like the way he talks about what's coming: " At Guadalajara International Book Fair 2016, Martin gave some clues about the dark nature of The Winds of Winter: ... "I've been telling you for 20 years that winter was coming. Winter is the time when things die, and cold and ice and darkness fill the world, so this is not going to be the happy feel-good that people may be hoping for. Some of the characters [are] in very dark places. .... Things get worse before they get better, so things are getting worse for a lot of people.
