He is the author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series, (also other short fiction and novels), and also the editor of the Wild Cards shared universe series.


He is not Sir George Martin CBE (born 3 January 1926 in London, England) sometimes referred to as "the fifth Beatle", due to his work producing almost all of the Beatles' records. He also authored "Summer of Love" and other books relating to his music career.


These are two different people but their books and names are often mixed because many GRRM titles are listed in LibraryThing as by "George Martin".
