I love reading popular histories myself, and that's what I was aiming for here…. The essential point being the ‘history’ part. This is not a traditional narrative and was never intended to be…let's call this one ‘ imaginary history’ instead. “I do want to stress.indeed, I want to shout.that Fire and Blood is not a novel. You will, however, be able to return to Westeros this year,” Martin said of the book in a statement. You're going to have to keep waiting for The Winds of Winter. “No, winter is not coming.not in 2018, at least. The first of two planned volumes, the book is, the publisher continued, intended as "the definitive history of the Targaryens in Westeros and chronicles the conquest that united the Seven Kingdoms under Targaryen rule through the Dance of the Dragons: the Targaryen civil war that nearly ended their dynasty forever." Martin's writing will be accompanied by 75 all-new black and white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley. The book, BBD said, is set 300 years before the events of Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series.
