Honestly it's been so long since the last book came out I genuinely don't care about ASOIAF anymore. I read the entire Black Company series in the meantime and am currently reading The Book of the New Sun.

People in that sub need to accept that their favorite obese worldbuilder is never writing another book and move on.

I liked Black Company more. The protagonists are a mercenary and a dictator and it still manages to be less edgy than Asoiaf.

I'm reading the Witcher

No Poland this does not mean I no longer hold a grudge against you

Do yourself a favor and stop after the short story collections, everyone involved in the story becomes a massive faggot once Sapkowski tries to do a "saga".

imagine knowing how to read lmao

reading. not even once

Does that include the new one that came out last year? I keep meaning to pick it up, but haven't had the time with my vigorous shitposting schedule. If so, is it any good?

Mieville has always been a commie though.

Yeah, but he didn't get really insufferable until after Iron Council. Then he stopped writing anything decent and became absurdly over the top preachy. Hell, one can interpret Iron Council as being about c*mmunisms inevitable failure.

This Census Taker was good though.

Or are you just talking about stuff set in Bas Lag? Because Perdido Street Station was definitely about class warfare and racism. Shit The City and The City was full of leftoid talking points from what I remember.

I'm primarily referring to the first three Bas-Lag yeah. I can also compartmentalize pretty well, and it didn't detract from the writing, worldbuilding and characters to the point it harmed those books (in my opinion anyway). It didn't commit the unforgivable crime of slipping over the line into didactic fiction - which is a frequent offense of L-sided P-slur writers.

Never touched The City and the City, so I can't comment there.

The City and the City and Embassytown are two of my favorite Mieville books, especially for their sheer originality of concept.

If it's not another novel in the main series it's just another case of Georgie Porgie spinning more plates because he had his creative orgasm way back in 2000 and is scrambling to find his mojo again.

LOL 😂 😂 reading fiction past age 18

Lol@urlife

King killer Chronicles was pretty...

Oh wait.

Fantasy is the land of thy unfinished 10 part trilogy

It's never coming out. It's not that good, compared to a ton of other shit out there. Nobody cares anymore.

It's over and all the money has been squeezed out of it.

It's over and all the money has been squeezed out of it.

I mean we'll see about that.

That's I suppose I should never disregard the ability to crush more profit from a beloved franchise.

Aren't they doing some spin-offs?

Fuck I hope not. If I were fat swordshit man I would just refuse anymore use of my IP just to troll the fuck out of corporate shitheads. I wouldn't want more money. I'd want their dignity

Does everyone not realise Georgey boy is a fat weeb who fukn loves corporate capeshit?

He's riding this bad boy to the grave.

They are but HBO canceled the one headed up by the only consistently good writer on the show, so they'll likely be dogshit and be forgotten in the same way all the walking dead spinoffs were.

There were walking dead spinoffs?

Fear the walking dead. I remember seeing adverts for it and shit but it came out after Season 1 of TWD, so the show had already jumped the shark long before the spinoff released

It's over and all the money has been squeezed out of it.

the Got/Harry Potter crossover will have you eating those words.

The new pottershit barely made a profit, if they can't either massively cut the budget or massively increase the quality of the films (and therefor increase their revenue) than the new series won't even make it past movie 3.

It makes me so fucking happy 😊

imagine continuing to give a shit months after the series you loved ends with a fucking fart, never to be heard from again.

I wonder if people still post about Dexter

This is the book subreddit, but that's been waiting for that book for like 9 years now

Oh, that's even better. That guy is gonna die before they get another book. He's fat and rich - a potent combination.

He's just eating and fucking high class escorts

nah he lives just like he liked when he was poor - which is even worse, or better, depending how you look at it

Literally book Notch

? Notch lives in $100m dollar james bond villian fortress in beverly hills

Which only has a wall of candy as a rich person upgrade and nothing else.

He didn't want the complementary bugattis? What a europoor

I don't even care if it's gatekeeping, that place is like 50% actual book readers at most now that the show went to the shitter.

The predominant top comment when season 8 was falling all over itself in /r/asoiaf was illiterate show fans coping about how "now at least I want to read the books".

It's no longer the book subreddit, it's /r/freefolk with autistic longposts instead of autistic memes.

They'll be released. Some day, GRRM will have a heart attack, his publisher will hire Brandon Sanderson, and he'll crank out 3 or 4 more GOT books in a three day weekend.

Robert Jordancels BTFO.

Sanderson has already said he wouldn't do it unless he gets to write every surviving character discovering the truth of Mormonism

Based.

would beat the tv show ending by a long shot

Not quite but close, also TIL Sanderson is a merman.

Martin is in awful shape and now into his 70s; he's 5'6 and probably 40kg overweight. Even if he somehow finishes Winds of Winter before his heart gives out there's no chance of Dream of Spring ever being released.

GRRM is totally gonna do a Robert Jordan on us.

I gave up hope on the books and just accept that the show ending is it.

Can we discuss the "swordshitters" name. I like swords but even I'm not into that excuse for a series

The writer has been mentally cockteasing the new book for years now and all the hypnotized fantasy slaves are eagerly waiting, cock in hand, for the new books thinking it’s gonna top the series because it was ”such a shitshow”.

Bad news, it ain’t, they’ve squeezed the fucking aminoacids out of this whole franchise, it’s dead and nobody cares, what other ending are these r words expecting anyways?
