The So Spake Martin collection has been updated with a new audio interview with GRRM. It’s a very good one, actually, from the Law Talk podcast. A number of questions about the setting in relation to law are asked, as well as questions concerning magic in fantasy, the trend towards the medieval setting, the proposed HBO series, and more.
Tor has launched an official site for the Wild Cards series, in preparation for the release of Inside Straight. The site features an introducion by George R. R. Martin, interviews with contributing authors such as John J. Miller, Michael Cassut, Daniel Abraham, Carrie Vaughn, and more, and a special hidden feature—the first ever Wild Cards story, never before published—when you sign up for the e-mail list.
The following press release is, in brief, about this and this (and also this). Want to get them? Read below!
(And yes, the art on the prnts is by the phenomenal Michael Komarck.)
According to Ted Nasmith, various pieces of castle art he has completed from the forthcoming The World of Ice and Fire will be on display at an exhibition at Redesdale Hall in the town of Moreton-in-Marsh in England. The exhibition is tentatively scheduled for April 4th through 8th, and Nasmith promises to have more details nearer to April.
GRRM’s official site has been updated with new items in the “News” section, principally further information on the cross-genre Warriors anthology he will be co-editing with Gardner Dozois and the announcement of the delivery of the next Wild Cards novel, Busted Flush, to Tor.
