George R.R. Martin’s latest ASoIaF story is coming…in about three months! According to Martin’s Not a Blog, the release date for the new anthology, Rogues has been set for June 17th, and the book, edited by Martin and Gardner Dozois, will feature one Martin-penned story, as well as stories from Neil Gaiman, Joe Abercrombie, and Patrick Rothfuss!
The anthology will include a new story, “The Rogue Prince, or, the King’s Brother.” After the success of “The Princess and the Queen,” (which was included in the Dangerous Women anthology, and from which you can read an excerpt here on Tor.com) Martin wanted to tell another story from Archmaester Gyldayn’s perspective. The story will fill in some more detail about the reign of King Viserys I Targaryen and his brother, the titular Rogue Prince. We can’t wait to read it!
