Exciting news for fans of George R.R. Martin's epic series, A Song of Ice and Fire! This week, Martin delighted his followers with a blog update, but not about the much-anticipated *The Winds of Winter*. Instead, he unveiled the cover for the upcoming illustrated edition of *A Feast for Crows*, the fourth book in the series to receive this special treatment. This edition will feature stunning artwork by Jeffrey R. McDonald, adding a visual dimension to the intricate world of Westeros.
Mark your calendars for November 4, 2025, as that's when *A Feast for Crows: The Illustrated Edition* is set to hit the shelves. You can secure your copy now by preordering from top retailers like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Target. Whether you're a collector or new to the illustrated editions, this is a must-have addition to your library.
Out November 4, 2025
This release is a boon for those who've been collecting the illustrated editions. It's been a long wait since the last illustrated edition, *A Storm of Swords*, which was released in November 2020. The new edition of *A Feast for Crows* will also feature a foreword by Joe Abercrombie, adding an extra layer of excitement. Martin has promised to share some of the interior illustrations later this spring, building anticipation for the book's release.
If you're new to the illustrated editions and looking to start your collection, the first three books in the series—*A Game of Thrones*, *A Clash of Kings*, and *A Storm of Swords*—are already available in their beautifully illustrated forms.
For those eagerly awaiting *The Winds of Winter*, the wait continues. Martin's last update on this book was in December 2024, where he candidly shared that he might not complete it in his lifetime. This followed his November 2023 update, where he confirmed having written 1,100 pages. While this news might be disheartening after nearly 14 years of anticipation, there remains hope that the series might be completed by someone else. With the fourth illustrated edition now on the horizon, it seems likely that the first five special editions will be completed before *The Winds of Winter* sees the light of day.
