George RR Martin may not be writing any of the Game of thrones prequel, but he certainly has insider knowledge about the stories they will tell.

And he just spilled the beans on two of them.

While Martin had hinted on his blog that one of the unenlightened series had something to do with the Targaryen, he revealed in an interview with The Guardian at least two of them rest securely on materials Fire and blood. These have not yet been clarified. "

Fire and blood is a canonical story of the Targaryan conquest, as was the case when Jon's and Jon's great-great-great-great-great-grandparents rained, so … fire and blood on the continent of Westeros.

In the conquest, Aegon the Conqueror (who gave his name to Jon Snow) and his two sister-wives seized the seven kingdoms and unified them under the Targaryen House by persuading their leaders to bend the knee – something their The Thrones-The offspring of era seem to have a talent for too.

Martin mentioned that the other prequels are "everywhere on the map", which could mean stories unfolding across the narrow sea and beyond.

The interview also touched on Martin's progress in writing Winter Winds, the next long-awaited book A song of ice and fire. Martin has described The winds as "a dozen novels" and stressed that its complexity was one of the reasons why its publication is delayed.

As for what comes next Winter WindsMartin said he did not know if he would write the last book in the series directly.

"Winter Winds is the following, I will then decide what will follow – whether to continue a dream of spring, the last, or if I come back in Fire and Blood II, do another Dunk and Egg story or two. But I'm going to worry about this thing at once – it's too far ahead. "

And if the waiting continues for Winter Winds and the last season of Game of thronesbut at least there is new prequel news that needs to be excited.
