n a slight defense of GRRM, if I had created a universe of such depth with so many POV characters and so many plots, arcs, etc, there’s no fricking way in hell I’d be able to finish. But then again, that’s why they pay the fatass the big bucks.

Here’s my rub with that. You have to be a big enough writer to admit when you’ve written yourself into a corner you can’t get out of and need help. That’s what GRRM needs to do. It’s very apparent at this point he’s either waiting for the show to end so he can see the reaction/change shite OR he’s just stuck but too fricking unwilling to reach out for assistance. frick him for not doing that.

Have you finished a book series with less depth and fewer characters?

I'm not arguing against the fact that he has indeed created a deep universe with a complex story, but that's not really a good defense when considering this is his "job" and he started the series 23 years ago, while it ballooned in size as it went.
