I want to spoil all of this season for you just for saying that. Guess who's going to die!

As a reader it's very disappointing to me that the show will overtake the books. My TV watching friends won't be able to wait 10 years without spoiling me :'(

That's not the prequel he's talking about. He's talking about a series of novellas he's written/working on that take place before any characters in the TV show are even born (but has one very old man character from the books, who was cut from the show, as a young boy.) Dunk & Egg

FIRE & BLOOD!!!

I could have done with a five year gap, considering all the nothing that happened the past 2000 pages.
