He had grown frustrated that his TV pilots and screenplays were not getting made and that TV-related production limitations like budgets and episode lengths were forcing him to cut characters and trim battle scenes. This pushed Martin back towards writing books where he did not have to worry about compromising the size of his imagination. Admiring the works of J. R. R. Tolkien in his childhood he wanted to write an epic fantasy though he did not have any specific ideas. This would eventually turn into his epic fantasy series: A Song of Ice and Fire which was inspired by the Wars of the Roses The Accursed Kings and Ivanhoe. Martin originally conceptualised it as being three volumes. It is currently intended to comprise seven volumes. The first A Game of Thrones was published in 1996." .

"Blish spent 19421944 as a medical technician in the United States Army. After the war he became the science editor for the Pfizer pharmaceutical company. His writing career progressed until eventually he gave up his job to become a full-time writer. He is credited with coining the term gas giant in the story "Solar Plexus" as it appeared in the anthology Beyond Human Ken edited by Judith Merril. The story was originally published in 1941 but that version did not contain the term; Blish is thought to have added it in a rewrite done for the anthology which was first published in 1952. From 1962 to 1968 Blish worked for the Tobacco Institute. Then in 1968 Blish left his native United States and moved to Henley-on-Thames England. From 1967 to 1977 Blish worked on a series of books for the Star Trek franchise. He died before the series was completed and the final volume Star Trek 12 was co-credited to his wife." ; Signed by Author . Dodd, Mead & Company hardcover books
