There are a lot of speculations about who is going to get killed in "Winds of Winter." Also, there are rumors whether the book will finally solve the mystery of Jon Snow's parents or not.
Mrycella and Tommen are expected to be killed off in the much-anticipated book. Besides them, it is also expected that "Game of Thrones" author George R. R. Martin is also plotting a new twist and may bump off some one else also.
The release date of "Winds of Winter" is constantly getting delayed. The sixth book in the best seller fiction series "A Song of Fire and Ice" is being awaited since 2011 across the world. It was earlier expected that the book will be released before the release of "Game of Thrones" Season 6.
However, that does not seem possible now and Martin also seems resigned to the fact that the television series may finish before the book series, according to Geek Wire. It is believed that the book will be released in the second half of next year.
The book is expected to carry the storyline about the truth of Snow's parents. The entire puzzle is rumored to be resolved in this book. Martin also hinted on his journal "Not a Blog" about how he is thinking of adding major twists in the storyline. He also talked about a wannabe king, who is alive, in spite of what others believe.
This mainly hints that Stannis Baratheon is not dead. Stannis was last seen in the show "Game of Thrones" at the mercy of Brienne, who wanted to kill him. His death was however, not shown in the scene and it was abruptly cut short.
Meanwhile, Kit Harrington was seen shooting for an elaborate war scene in Belfast for "Game of Thrones" Season 6. He was seen wearing stark clothes, hinting towards the fact that his Night's Watch days are over.
A recent leak also revealed the titles of the 10 episodes of "Game of Thrones" Season 6, which will start airing next April. One of the episodes is titled as "Jon Stark: The King in the North."
This is causing much excitement amongst fans who were waiting for a hint like this and to know that their favorite character is alive. However, some fans also pointed out that this scene may be a blast from the past and that Snow might be dead after all.
