New Game of Thrones spinoff series announced

The network has given the green light to a pilot of a prequel that will take place thousands of years before the main series. It’ll be written by George R.R. Martin and Jane Goldman who you know from Kick-Ass and Stardust.

New book announced – The Winds of Winter

Every hardcore Game of Thrones fan has been waiting for this! And finally George R.R. Martin has confirmed that the sixth book is coming to the Song of Ice and Fire series.

It’s called The Winds of Winter, and fans have been waiting with bated breath as numerous deadlines have already been missed. This is what we know so far.

Winter is Coming, but not in 2018
