Following are excerpts (without commentary) from the five published books that may give clues as to what will happen in the final season of the HBO series, which premiers on April 14.
Fans of George R. R. Martin’s epic fantasy know that the TV show Game of Thrones, based on the Song of Ice and Fire book series, is due to premiere its final season on April 14. For the obsessed, theories abound (plausible and wild) about how it all ends, which we’ll get into in a bit.
