Martin´s blog has featured updates on his progress, and in January 2008, he posted an update on his website affirming his vigilant commitment to finishing the book. ĭespite original predictions of possible completion in late 2006, the book was not finished by the end of 2008. Sansa chapters initially slated for Dance have instead been pushed back to The Winds of Winter, the planned sixth book in the series. Martin has confirmed that, contrary to earlier statements, Sansa will not appear in the novel. Martin has also promised to try to include some 'catch-up' chapters at the end of the novel to reveal what happened to some of that novel's characters after the cliffhanger endings of A Feast for Crows, such as Brienne of Tarth, Jaime and Cersei Lannister, but only if he has enough room at the end of the book.
Characters in the North and across the sea were held back for A Dance with Dragons, although Arya Stark and Asha Greyjoy will appear in both volumes.Īpproximately one-third of the published A Dance with Dragons will consist of material that had been written for the pre-split A Feast for Crows, although much of this has already been rewritten by Martin. Thus, characters in the South of the Seven Kingdoms and in the new locations of the Iron Islands and Dorne appeared in A Feast for Crows. Rather than simply split it in half and publish it as 'Part 1' and 'Part 2', Martin decided to split the book by character and location. This was because the book had become far too large to publish as one volume. When the fourth novel in the series, A Feast for Crows, was published it did not contain point-of-view sections from many of the main/key characters of the series. *Epilogue: Kevan Lannister, Regent of the Iron Throne. *1 chapter: Areo Hotah, protector to the Prince of Dorne. *2 chapters: Victarion Greyjoy, brother of King Euron Greyjoy, heading for Meereen. *4 chapters: Ser Barristan Selmy, head of Daenerys Targaryen's Queensguard. *2 chapters: Jon Connington, former Knight of Griffon's Roost in Westeros. *1 chapter: Jaime Lannister, member of the Kingsguard, traversing the riverlands for the Iron Throne. *2 chapters: Cersei Lannister, Queen Regent, imprisoned by the High Septon for fornication. *1 chapter: Melisandre, the red priestess and chief advisor to Stannis Baratheon. *7 chapters: Theon Greyjoy, heir to the Iron Islands, a captive at the Dreadfort. *4 chapters: Quentyn Martell, an emissary from his father, Prince Doran Martell of Dorne, on a mission to the east. *3 chapters: Asha Greyjoy, the niece of King Euron Greyjoy of the Iron Islands. *2 chapters: Arya Stark, a student of the Faceless Men of Braavos. *3 chapters: Bran Stark, The son of Eddard Stark, presumed dead.
*10 chapters : Daenerys Targaryen, heir to House Targaryen and Queen of Meereen. *4 chapters: Davos Seaworth, King's Hand to Stannis Baratheon.

*12 chapters : Tyrion Lannister, a kinslayer on the run in the Free Cities. *13 chapters: Jon Snow, the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch.
The tale is told through the eyes of 16 point-of-view characters and, as with previous volumes, a one-off prologue point-of-view and an epilogue. Sample chapters are available on .uk and George R.R. But Daenerys' presence is now known to many in Westeros, and from the Iron Islands and Dorne, from Oldtown and the Free Cities, emissaries are on their way to find her and use her cause for their own ends. In the far east, Daenerys Targaryen has conquered the city of Meereen, but has decided to stay and rule the city, honing her skills of leadership which will be needed when she travels on to Westeros. Tyrion Lannister has been taken by ship across the Narrow Sea to Pentos, but his eventual goals are unknown even to him. On the Wall itself Jon Snow has been elected the 998th Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, but has enemies both in the Watch and beyond the Wall to watch for. In the North, King Stannis Baratheon has installed himself at the Wall and vowed to win the support of the northmen to continue his struggle to claim the Iron Throne, although this is complicated by the fact that much of the west coast is under occupation by the ironborn. The War of the Five Kings seems to be winding down. A Dance with Dragons picks up where A Storm of Swords left off and runs simultaneously with events in A Feast for Crows.
