The release of "Winds of Winter" by George R.R. Martin has been much anticipated by fans of the book series, "A Song of Ice and Fire." Lately, there have been points made out by a popular theorist of Martin's book series.
"Winds of Winter" to be released by early 2017?
A man who goes by the name of BrydenBFish is an active part of the "A Song of Ice and Fire" subreddit and even has a blog dedicated to the wars and politics of the said book series. Just recently, he revealed a prediction that "Winds of Winter" will definitely be released by the first quarter of 2017.
BrydenBFish has based this description by intensely studying Martin's speed in writing from the previous books he has written, as reported by the International Business Times. He previously analysed Martin's writing speed from when he was writing "A Dance with Dragons," hence coming up with the conclusion of the release of "Winds of Winter."
He also has concerns about the quality of the book when it comes out. Martin initially intended to write the Battle of Winterfell and the Battle of Fire during the end of "A Dance with Dragons," however, he has decided to push it further into the book's plot. This has led many fans disappointed and worried how it will come out on "Winds of Winter."
Stannis might win Battle of Winterfell in the book
He has also very interesting ideas and speculations about the upcoming book and what might deviate from the TV series. For example, he believes that Stannis might actually win the battle of Winterfell. This is based on the theory that Jon Snow's character on the famous television series "Game of Thrones" has adapted the character of Stannis in the book, as reported by Winter is Coming; thus, Stannis my win the battle in the book's version of the conflict.
Another theory that has come up is that Daenerys might allegedly give in to the madness of being a Targaryen and will burn Westeros down to the ground. However, BrydenBFish disagrees to this at a point since based on his strong analysis of Martin and his writing styles, he doesn't think this is not the way the latter writes of his characters.
