>>94947925I should note that George RR Martin gave D&D (the GOT showrunners) a somewhat detailed description of the plot for the last two books and how shit ends.
The chief reason WHY the show is now so far ahead of the books, is due to the fact that George RR Martin is a lazy fuck who, upon selling the rights to the show, basically has used the money to go traveling the world and getting drunk/even fatter and white knighting the now exposed as being rigged sham of an awards show that only awards SJW approved books fraud known as the Hugo awards.
Adding to this is the fact that while he's "released" new chapters from the as of yet released sixth book, it ultimately came out that said "preview chapters" were cut chapters from the fifth book.
Because he is a lazy shit, the TV show has now lapped the books story-wise and Martin has pretty much given up on finishing the books, by all account because his laziness fucked shit up in terms of the TV replacing the books as the defining version of the story and that no one will give a fuck how he ends shit in his book.
