Primarily due to the success of this series and its TV adaptation, Martin earns millions of dollars each year as he continues work on the next novel in the series, which will be titled ‘The Winds of Winter’. His most well-known work, the ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ series, was adapted into the massively popular television show ‘Game of Thrones’. Martin has grown into one of the most recognizable names in fantasy literature. Since publishing his first story in Galaxy Magazine as a 21 year old student, George R.R. adults have completed all five books in the series. Despite the book series’ massive length, a survey revealed that around eight percent of surveyed U.S. Martin’s ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ series, is the lengthiest of the five currently released books, with a word count of almost 415 thousand, spanning over one thousand pages.
