Whilst aimlessly looking on Amazon for my next saga to tackle, I looked at George R R Martin cos a friend in the states recommended him, and noticed there's a new book available to pre order!!
So I emailed my american mate full of joy to share this bit of news with him, to find he knew nothing about it and that its not even on GRRMs website!
Attached is the link, so is it a new book or not?
Amazon.co.uk: A Dance with Dragons (A Song of Ice & Fire): Books: George R.R. Martin
further down the page it says release date 7th april 2008.
