I don't think martin is ever going to release the next book, { a dance with dragons i think he claimed it was going to be called } He's got to be two years late releasing it already. Can anyone suggest some other good reading ?

Alistair Reynolds, specifically Diamond Dogs (My favourite book of all time).
Have you read Altered Carbon, forget the authors name.
You could also try Dan Simmons.

The New York Times is pretty good if you enjoy fiction.

I just read that bit last night, it was a bit strange, it was familiar but I'm still none the wiser. I'll read it again in a bit and see if it makes more sense, but to be honest I have real trouble understanding who is who, there's far to many names thrown about.

Which persons do you have trouble decoding? I think it's pretty easy: The little crannogman is of course Howland Reed. (The only other survivor besides Ned Stark after the fight at the Tower of Joy). The Wild Wolf is Brandon Stark who was killed by Arys. The Quiet Wolf is Ned Stark. The she-wolf is of course Lyanna Stark, who was later abducted by Crown Prince Rhaegar (The Dragon Prince). The young pup is Benjen Stark. The maid with the laughing purple eyes that eventually danced with Ned Stark is Ashara Dayne. The three squires that bullied the little crannogman served Frey knights, and these knights was challenged by the mystery knight: This Knight of the Laughing Tree then unhorses the three Frey knights, and commands them in a booming voice to teach their squires better manners. What happened then is told in one of Ned's flashbacks in A Game of Thrones: See?
