Could a 2016 "The Winds of Winter" release date still be possible? After waiting for many years for the sixth novel to arrive, fans of George R.R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire" may have given up waiting for the book to come sooner.
Although Martin has clarified that the book is not yet complete, he failed to disclose any other details of the new novel including its real status. Speculations are rife that Martin is already proofreading the book and editing some parts, but there have been no confirmation as to when "The Winds of Winter" will be unveiled.
In a Reddit forum, fans have expressed their opinions about "The Winds of Winter" release date. While eager readers are still excited to get their hands on the new novel, they have kept their expectations really low.
One fan mentioned that GRRM seems to get slower with his writing, making the highly anticipated "TWOW" release date getting further delayed. Fans have given up on waiting for the book's launch this year, and have looked at 2017 as a more feasible date.
Meanwhile, fans flocked this year's WorldCon after it has been confirmed that author George R.R. Martin will be a special guest. Many hoped that "The Winds of Winter" author will disclose more information about the new novel, but he kept mum about it throughout the whole event. Some even thought that the book might be released in the same event, Christian Times noted.
If it gives fans any peace of mind, Martin's editor for "The Winds of Winter" recently told Newsweek that the author is working extra hard to get the book finished. However, like Martin, Jane Johnson was mum about the progress of the novel and claimed that she didn't know anything about it.
