I would say neither but if I had to pick I'd say Martin. His books don't get mired down like Hobbs. The plot steadily moves

Yeah. Id consider MJS books easier reading, especially Riyria revelations.

You do get multiple POVs but pacing is pretty smooth.

Just learned today that Sullivan is writing a 6th Chronicals novel called Blythin Castle and he's working on Book #2 of a five book post Riyria series called The Cycle.

This is from Sullivan's blog.

"The below order is how I meant you to be exposed to the story, and if you choose to take my advice the reading order would be:

Revelations (1 - 6): Theft of Swords | Rise of Empire | Heir of Novron

Chronicles (1 - 2): The Crown Tower | The Rose and the Thorn

Legends (1 - 3): Age of Myth | Age of Swords | Age of War

Chronicles (3 - 4): Death of Dulgath | Disappearance of Winter's Daughter

Legends (4 - 6): Age of Legend | Age of Death | Age of Empyre

Rise and Fall (1 - 3): Nolyn | Farilane | Esrahaddon

Chronicles 5: Drumindor"

I would never have thought to read them in that order but I see where it makes sense.

I read them in release order, I think that is how that list goes besides maybe mixing Legends 1-3 and Chronicles 3-4

I own Disappearance of Winter's Daughter signed hardcover. Underrated book.

I prefer the first legends trilogy over 4-6

The Legends weren't my favorites. It's more high fantasy with elves, dwarves, and ancient magic, ala LOTR, where the rest of his books are lighter reading with more humor, a more medieval era setting with kings, dukes, and sword fighting. To me it was more enjoyable.
