At this point, because I’ve seen the show, I’d have to go back and re-read all the books, to even start Winds of Winter. It’s all so mashed together in my head, I don’t remember the real story very well.
I’ve also accepted that he isn’t even going to finish the books.
At the end of the books, John Snow is still dead.
The whole series is just what Bran sees but is unable to communicate with anyone as he’s staring into a snowglobe after sustaining debilitating injuries from being pushed off the window.
It was all just a dream
One day it will be Brandon Sanderson who finishes. He’s probably already done with it and just waiting on GRRM to visit Valhalla.
Please stop trying to force Sanderson to write a series his style would be horrible at and that he would not enjoy finishing.
Joe Abercrombie and Robin Hobb are still alive, among plenty of other excellent grimdark fantasy authors, if you must insist on naming a successor.
I agree with Abercrombie and I don’t actually really care for Sanderson all that much. Sanderson is a prolific writer though, and his speed is in direct opposition to GRRM’s long droughts between books. It would be a bit less funny if I was being serious.
