In the article they mention "...enough time to finish the last two books of the seven books series" I immediately checked Martin's site, thinking i had missed the release of book five. No, it's not released, the article is wrong.  :eusa_wall:

Yes, it is. But according to his most recent blog entry:
"On other fronts, I hit page 1311 yesterday. No, not done yet."

So there is hope. And it has been so long now that I don't really mind anymore. When it's done, I'll be happy. Until then he can take his time. I want this to be good.

Can't blame him. 1311 pages and he already split the book in half!

Actually i was disappointed by the fourth book. Some characters just went a bit over the top in this book, i had the impression, that some chapters and plotlines were poorly thought out.
Still a good book, but worse than the other three.

Yeah, I didn't like it as much too.

Mainly because of the lack of Jon Snow and Daenrys, and TMI on the whole fat dude sex scene thing.

Hey, the first books are full of a midget getting laid in various ways. So, it appears that for you: midget sex good, fat dude sex bad?

Didn't go into as much detail.

This is the third press release of its type.  The first two had me waiting... and then.....

I hope this one isn't just another teaser.

I also want those last 2 books!!!!

Personally I was of the opinion that Sean Bean is the perfect casting for any role.

Even a dramatic take of Mother Theresa.
I thought he should act responsibly and just kill himself.
