I had no idea it would be green, but an astounding lot of people have guessed it would be green with a heraldic dragon on it. (Now that I think of it, after all the other colours, green would be the logical choice. And a shield dragon would make it look more like historical fiction, so a broader audience.)
Yeah, this confuses me greatly too. Has he actually finished it and just hasn't announced it officially, or is he not done and the book is "expected" to be done by September 30, 2008? As hungry as I am for a definite release date (and, obviously, the release of the book itself), it would pretty horrible if it were delayed again. I really hope it's the former.
I like the green color. That was the only thing that was intriguing to me when I first saw it. I mean, a dragon on "Dance with Dragons" is kinda obvious. The cover itself isn't exciting but it makes me happy that they're moving forward with it. They must be of the opinion that it will be done soon! (They could be wrong but hope springs eternal.)
