Okay, ive been sitting on this for months and i really cant anymore. im a production assistant at Bantam Spectra, been here for years. i am not going to post any proof because i actually want to keep my fucking job.The manuscript was delivered internally in January 2026. Not a partial. The actual full thing. GRRM apparently finished it sometime in late 2025 and the silence from his blog has been intentional, marketing told him to go dark.We have been in full editorial and layout pipeline since February. The official announcement is embargoed until Comic-Con, but we know hes going to announce it on his blog first because he doesnt give a fuck, with the actual release window being around fall. They want those holiday sales.The book is long, like long long, think AFFC and ADWD in one book, I wont say the word count because that alone would identify the source, but its about 1600 manuscript pages. People will not be disappointed on that front.The marketing team has been talking about a coordinated campaign that involves HBO so theres probably content planned to drop alongside the release, ill let you guys figure that out.Ill check this thread for a bit but i wont confirm or deny details that could identify me. Dont ask me stupid shit and yes jon is back lol
>so theres probably content planned to drop alongside the release, ill let you guys figure that out.it's been long enough, they could probably get away with a harry potter style reboot
I think they could get away with a Pynchon-style reboot with BBC and shit eating all over the place
>>25200054i want to believe...nice bait thoughbeit
sure bro.bump
Thanks, I'll read it if it comes out
Never going to happen lol.
Thanks for reminding me ADWD came out 15 fucking years ago
lmao
>>25200054Oh boy. I’m sure this isn’t bait like the hundreds of other OPs before you. That book is literally never coming out and you should all come to terms with it.If true, show us your reddit thread because I refuse to believe an inside editor of George’s isn’t hyping up ledditors
>>25200054What is your full name?
>>25200054There was a thread here a few months back (fits your timeline) where someone posted a chapter by chapter break down of twow
>>25200411No. Nothing ever happens. Winter is NOT coming.
>>25200054>>25200411STOP
>>25200370It's happening this time, you're gonna be so embarrassed
>>25200054I don’t believe you mostly because you write like a retard
>>25200054This hurts, OP. Why do you poke and prod at us like this? Like a kid tearing wings off flies?
>>25201354I’ve moved on to not caring if it ever is released. I’ll re-read the series again at some point if God allows, and I’ll watch the Dunk & Egg tv show and hope that somebody someday makes a new asoiaf tv series that doesn’t go past the books and does include Strong Belwas
>>25200054the show's been over for like a decade, no one even gives a shit anymore
my uncle works at nintendo, pokemon super mario edition will come out in 2 weeks
>>25201378>>25201383>>>/tv/>>>/v/plebs out
>>25200054We had a larp almost exactly like this promising the book in January. The faggot OP stuck around to 'answer questions' then as well. Probably the same fag.
Nothing ever fucking happens and you are a massive faggot if you believe OP's bullshit
>>25200054he's gonna die
>>25200550>bro this time it’s real!!It’s been 15 fucking years, anon… it’s over.
>>25201399yeah and he said the manuscript was delivered on december 4th. OP has gotta be the same guy
