I don’t know. I stopped reading the books partway through Book 4 and stopped watching the show after Season 3ish(?). I just got bored with the premise of the whole story boiling down to political intrigue without a satisfying progression of the characters and plolines I personally enjoyed. I didn’t want to slog through hours and hours of reading to only get a sprinkling of the action I craved on top of the chapters of scheming and plotting. It just got stale for me.
