Apologies for the slightly off-topic post...

It's not looking good, folks...

George R R Martin confirms he hasn't written anything for the 2 remaining A Song Of Ice And Fire books since 2022.

He wishes that they were finished.

The last published book in the series, A Dance With Dragons, was published in July 2011, now 13 years ago.

Obligatory song that's now 12 years old... https://youtu.be/j7lp3RhzfgI

No mention of the rush of the ending? Who WAS Elan and why the link to Rand? So many questions left

The ending was pretty fast but it hit a lot of the points it should have. I don't remember Elan since it has been a while and I'm neck deep in Malazan.

The link with Rand: i am guessing you mean what happened to him at the end? That makes sense if you recall him crossing balefire streams with Mordin in Shadar Lorgoth

Yes elan is moridin. They have a sit and chat in one Rands later visions, and even resemble each other as I recall.
