George R.R. Martin has confirmed that The Winds of Winter will finally take readers deep into the White Walkers' frozen homeland in the far north of Westeros, exploring the mysterious 'Land of Always Winter' in the long‑delayed sixth volume of A Song of Ice and Fire.
In an interview, the author said the last two books would venture beyond the known map and into the true domain of the Others, a promise that has taken on fresh weight as fans continue to wait for The Winds of Winter's eventual publication.
