It seems like nothing has ever been certain with regards to the said issue. However, certain reports claimed that the sixth book of the “A Song of Ice And Fire” might be released in 2018. What could be the cause of its delay: is George R.R. Martin really busy?
‘Winds Of Winter’ launch date
As per reports, sources told that “The Winds Of Winter” would not be released this year due to the fact that George R.R. Martin is really busy with some of his commitments.

With that, reports told that the writer would be very hands on with it and would even ask for the help of his friends in Hollywood.
