George R.R. Martin recently shared exciting news on his blog, though not about the highly anticipated The Winds of Winter. Instead, he unveiled the cover art for the illustrated edition of A Feast for Crows, the fourth book in the A Song of Ice and Fire series to receive this special treatment. The artwork is by Jeffrey R. McDonald.
A Feast for Crows: The Illustrated Edition is slated for release on November 4, 2025. Pre-orders are now open at major book retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Target, among others.

This announcement is welcome news for collectors of the illustrated editions. The last one, A Storm of Swords, was released in November 2020, making it a five-year wait for this latest installment. This edition will also include a foreword by Joe Abercrombie. Martin promises a sneak peek at some interior illustrations later this spring.

What About The Winds of Winter?
For those eagerly awaiting The Winds of Winter, the news is less cheerful. Martin's most recent comments, from December 2024, hinted that he may not complete the series in his lifetime. This follows his November 2023 update where he stated he'd written 1,100 pages. While disappointing after a nearly 14-year wait, there's still a glimmer of hope for the series' eventual completion, perhaps by another author. However, it seems likely the illustrated editions of the first five books will be finished before The Winds of Winter sees publication.
