'The Winds of Winter' Release Date & Update: Book Coming Soon; Amazon France Includes A 'TWOW' Placeholder Page!

There is no doubt that the fans of "A Song of Ice and Fire" series have been yearning to see its sixth book, "The Winds of Winter." It's been five years and counting since George RR Martin published the last "ASOIAF" book and the next book might hit the bookshelves soon. According to reports, a placeholder for "The Winds of Winter" is seen in Amazon France.

If you are among the "ASOIAF" fans who have been waiting to get a hold of "The Winds of Winter," you will surely be delighted with this report. There are rumors that the anticipated book will soon be hitting the market.

According to Winter is Coming, Amazon France posted a placeholder for "The Winds of Winter." Aside from the price, it also listed the date March 9, 2017. You can check the post here. Does this suggest that the book is indeed coming out early next year?

George RR Martin's fans who have been yearning to see "The Winds of Winter" are desperate for a release date. The post in Amazon is telling us that the book will be available in the first quarter of the year.

Initially, George RR Martin planned to release "The Winds of Winter" before "Game of Thrones" season 6. Unfortunately, the last season aired and ended without "The Winds of Winter" in sight. Is the book really coming out soon? Many hope that it is indeed coming out.

However, one Amazon user suggested that the news could be false and that "The Winds of Winter" fans should not put too much hope on the placeholder in Amazon. The site usually adds placeholder dates for items that don't have a release date yet. Thus, fans should not believe on it until, George RR Martin, the scribe of "The Winds of Winter" confirms it.
