"The Winds of Winter" by George R.R. Martin seems like it's not yet ready to be released next year. The sixth installment of the "A Song of Ice and Fire" book series is expected to be revealed in 2018 contrary to the original 2017 schedule. The hit HBO series "Game of Thrones," which is based on the book series, might already end before readers even get a hold of the upcoming book.
George R.R. Martin has earlier admitted that he has been very busy which is one reason for the delay of "The Winds of Winter." His age is also another factor. He once wrote on his online journal that he is growing old and is no longer as fast as he used to be in terms of writing. Recent updates reveal that the highly anticipated sixth book will be delayed again. Readers will have to wait until 2018 before they can read it.
The author already informed his readers that he is still months away from finishing the book as he still needs to write hundreds of pages. It is said that "The Winds of Winter" is longer than the previous installments so more time is needed to finalize it. George R.R. Martin's team is still silent about its release. Any update regarding its publication will be announced on the writer's website.
