    Fucking stupid. The last season went off the rails because they didn’t have a book to follow, and they wanted to finish quickly so they could make some dumb movie that in the end they never got to make anyway. Fucking finish the book Martain. Unfortunately he won’t hopefully someone can after he fucking dead.

      I believe he spun up too many plot threads and can’t figure out how to wrap it without killing everyone. That, and his outline for the final season was received poorly and he’ll leave it for someone else to do. He doesn’t need to work anymore.

        I mean, if the plot points weren’t rushed and were actually built up it could have been fine, and hell has the chance to still be good. But no, the final seasons were a rushed mess and even the actors knew it wasn’t something they were proud of so georgie boy has decided he’ll just tell different stories set within the same world or take a break writing some of elden ring and never bothering coming back to the stories that made him a house hold namr.

        No there is supposed to be a sixed book. The fifth one is not the last. The 5th season of the show was based on that book.
