Some characters you saw in the show are quite different than the versions in the novels. I have legions of secondary characters, not POVs but nonetheless important to the plot, who also figure in the story: Lady Stoneheart, Young Griff, the Tattered Prince, Penny, Brown Ben Plumm, the Shavepate, Marwyn the Mage, Darkstar, Jeyne Westerling. I have viewpoint characters in the books never seen on the show: Victarion Greyjoy, Arianne Martell, Areo Hotah, Jon Connington, Aeron Damphair They will all have chapters, and the things they do and say will impact the story and the major characters who were on the show. Certain things that happened on HBO will not happen in the books. The novels are much bigger and much much more complex than the series. “Yes, some of the things you saw on HBO in Game of Thrones you will also see in The Winds of Winter (though maybe not in quite the same ways)… but much of the rest will be quite different.”Īnd really, when you think about it, this was inevitable. “What I have noticed more and more of late, however, is my gardening is taking me further and further away from the television series,” Martin writes.
