Танец с драконами
Tyrion appears first in "A Game of Thrones" (1996), and then in "A Clash of Kings" (1998) and "A Storm of Swords" (2000). He is one of a handful of "sorely missed" major characters that do not appear in 2005's "A Feast for Crows", but on his website in 2006 Martin released a sample chapter featuring Tyrion from his next novel "A Dance with Dragons". In advance of the publication of "A Dance with Dragons" in 2011, Martin confirmed Tyrion's presence in the novel and called him one of "the characters people have been waiting for". Grossman concurred, writing of "A Dance with Dragons", "Now the camera has swung back to the main characters: Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen and Tyrion Lannister." James Poniewozik of "Time" added that the return of these "favorite characters" gave "A Dance with Dragons" a "narrative edge" over "A Feast for Crows". In April 2012, Martin read a Tyrion chapter from his forthcoming "The Winds of Winter" at Eastercon; a second Tyrion chapter was read at Worldcon in August 2013 and later released in the official "A World of Ice and Fire" iOS application on March 20, 2014.
