Every Sunday, the day of rest, Satan's day, we run through all the biggest stories from the past seven days here on WinterIsComing.net, where we cover all things sci-fi, fantasy, movies, books and TV, and share them with you. One of the biggest things we got to do this week was interview A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin, who has been in the news quite a lot lately:
