Doubt it because he just signed on to do Skin Trade with avatar comics. So he basically has to write an entire comic book each month.

That sucks because I read the wiki on Dany and I want to know what happens in the end. Maybe the HBO writers will make up something??? Ugh.

I keep kicking myself everytime I start reading a series, either without realizing it is the first of many, or a series that is incomplete. For example Clan of the Cavebear. I guess that series will never be completed either......

Khaleesi - Game of Thrones Wiki

Just curious, Hawk. I saw Khaleesi's army marching out of the Slave King's city. Not wanting
a spoiler can you say where she is on the map and which direction she will be taking to
encounter her first battle? I know she crossed the Narrow Sea, but in the beginning show
credits I don't even see the Narrow Sea on the map - so I can't tell excatly where she is in
relation to King's Landing.

Spoiler

She is anti-slavery. If it follows the book(s) she will start to conquer the slave city-states on Essos. She does this to gather an army to take to Westeros. The problem is that she expands too fast and can't control some variables. She also has a fair share of double crossing happen to her.


Because the books kind of bounce around I don't remember if it's in A Storm of Swords or one of the next two. A Dance of Dragons is almost entirely set on the Eastern Continent.

Because, I've always thought (after having read all 4 books and watched seasons 1 & 2) that I don't think that Martin has ever TRULY revealed yet who Jon's parents REALLY were.
.
I just found out how to hide a spoiler! So here goes: The name Ned mentions to Robert when he asks who Jon's mother is, is...

Spoiler
"Willa!"

Does it say anything about who his mother was? Social station or family ties? Was she a prostitute (hard to imagine Eddard visiting one) or was she a girl of social standing?

Spoiler

Martin has stated the he does already know who Jon Snow's mother is and she will eventually be revealed.[5] He has told some of the cast members secrets about their characters which have not been revealed in his novels yet however he has only revealed things which their characters would logically know already. Kit Harington has said that Martin therefore did not tell him who Jon Snow's mother is because his character does not know.
Harington says he prefers not to think too much about the various theories of his character's parentage as Jon Snow has come to accept that he will never learn the truth about his mother's identity.[6]
