Georgie is certainly taking his time, but that's the price of getting into a series before it's complete. He'll get it out when it's done... I've seen dates as far out as late 2005 (although based on the updates on his website it seems he should be closer than that).

I'd rather have it RIGHT than fast... but hopefully he can do both before I'm 80 and too blind to read it.

btw: Here's my normal response to "Is 'A Song of Ice and Fire' any good?"
- It's the best Fantasy series since Hobbits and the Professor legitamized the genre.

or to steal some dialog from "The Princess Bride"...

(dread pirate roberts) "Are they really that good"
(sicilian) "Do you know Jordan, Williams, Bradley?"
(dread pirate roberts) "yes"
(sicilian) "HACKS!"
