So thatâs the route I chose to take.
Tyrion, Jon, Dany, Stannis and Melisandre, Davos Seaworth, and all the rest of the characters you love or love to hate will be along next year (I devoutly hope) in
A Dance with Dragons
, which will focus on events along the Wall and across the sea, just as the present book focused on Kingâs Landing.
