'The Winds of Winter' is the sixth novel in George R. R. Martin's epic fantasy series 'A Song of Ice and Fire.

Speculations are rife that Aegon Targaryen and Cersei may battle it out for the Iron Throne in the upcoming book "Winds of Winter." They may take some help from their allies namely Dorne and Daenerys Targaryen.

Targaryen is the son of Elia Martell and Prince Rhaegar Targaryen. He was presumed to be dead but he was just keeping a low profile and has amassed an army to take on the enemy and lay his claim to the Iron Throne.

Prince Doran wanted to form an alliance with the Mother of Dragons and in this regard he had sent his son Quentyn Martell to Essoss. The Martells will have an influential role in the much-anticipated book "Winds of Winter," George R.R. Martin revealed in his official website. Prince Doran wanted that Martell and the Mother of Dragons should marry and form a personal alliance as well. 

However, the Mother of Dragons rejected Martell's proposal and this upset Prince Doran no end. He tried to take revenge on her by taming one of her dragons. 

Unfortunately, he was unsuccessful on this front as well and he died at the hands of the dragons. Thus Dorne is miffed at the Mother of Dragons and they may back the young Targaryen in his bid for the Iron Throne instead of supporting Khaleesi for the same.

Meanwhile, Cersei is not pleased at the Tyrells because they were amused at her "Walk of Shame." Hence, she may plan to kill Margaery as a form of revenge. In case, this does happen then the army lords of Highgarden are sure to break out in revenge and wreck havoc on King's Landing. 

As Cersei and the Tyrells are at loggerheads, so Targaryen may seek the latter's support in laying his claim for the Iron Throne. This way, the Tyrells will also be able to displace Cersei from the Iron Throne, which she has forcibly occupied after all her children were killed.

"A Dream of Spring" is the next and the last book after "Winds of Winter" in the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. Martin said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that he may change his mind and write more books after "A Dream of Spring."
