New Illustrated Game of Thrones Edition Arrives in Nov

A Feast for Crows: The Illustrated Edition

The wait continues for "The Winds of Winter," but fans of George R.R. Martin's epic saga have something new to anticipate. The author recently revealed the cover for the illustrated edition of "A Feast for Crows," featuring artwork by Jeffrey R. McDonald.

Book Release Details

Set for release on November 4, 2025, this will be the fourth installment in the series to receive the special illustrated treatment. The edition includes a foreword by acclaimed fantasy author Joe Abercrombie. Preorders are currently available through major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Target.

The Illustrated Series Timeline

The illustrated editions have been appearing every few years, with "A Storm of Swords" receiving its treatment in November 2020. This new release maintains the pattern, arriving five years after the last illustrated volume.

Complete Your Collection

For collectors, the previous three illustrated editions are already available:

• "A Game of Thrones: The Illustrated Edition"
• "A Clash of Kings: The Illustrated Edition"
• "A Storm of Swords: The Illustrated Edition"

A complete box set of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is also currently on the market.

The Winds of Winter Update

In his December 2024 update, Martin expressed doubts about completing "The Winds of Winter" within his lifetime, despite having written approximately 1,100 pages. While disappointing for fans who've waited over a decade, this latest illustrated edition offers some consolation for collectors.
