Meanwhile, for those who cannot wait another six months or so to return to the Seven Kingdoms, there will be a novella-length excerpt from the fourth book in the March issue of DRAGON magazine, which should be on sale in most good newsstands and gaming stores by late February.
The novella is titled "Arms of the Kraken," and is part of the Prologue of A FEAST FOR CROWS, although the action overlaps the end of A STORM OF SWORDS. Set on the storm-swept Iron Islands, "Arms of the Kraken" tells the story of the struggle for the Seastone Chair after the death of Balon Greyjoy, and sets the stage for some important developments in A FEAST FOR CROWS. You will find it in DRAGON, issue #305.
