No word on when we can expect his follow-up, sadly.

(Maybe thats what Martin has a bee in his bonnet over?)

A combination of factors led to that re-balance.

We are building to that event.

It will happen very shortly in terms of storytelling.

It will be the biggest thing to date we have pulled off.

We want to have the time and space to do that at a level that will excite the fans.

In July, Martin bloggedthat he was actually pleased with season 2 at least at that point in time.

I have visited real castles that did not look half as imposing as the Red Keep and Dragonstone did.

And they were HUGE, he wrote.

I also got a sneak peak at the first two episodes of season 2.

What a great way to start the season.

The directing was superb.

Game of Thrones veteran Alan Taylor directed the first episode, and Clare Kilner the second.

Both of them did a magnificent job.

And I cannot say enough about the acting.
