To be honest, they will have to sex it up a bit and add a good bit of violence for it to work in today's Post-GOT market.
Ya but I hope not too much, the violence is there its just not as full on gore written on the page, but its insinuated as such.
I love the level of description, although he overuses phrases and over explains things we already know way too much. One thing I love is just how put together it all was as well as the level of insight you get into characters mindset / emotions / psychology or however you put it.
For example, I was re-reading the series and they were talking about Nyn and her block. I would have to look up the exact wording but they were talking about they would try and get through it. But one of Nyns thoughts in that passage was "I can't breath underwater and I can't..." - well a couple books later she finally gets through her block because her ship is sinking and she needs to be able to breathe underwater.
Also puts in stuff about Rand or Mat's mindset, personality which will tell the tale of how they will react to a situation four books later. I love story structure and all and Jordan puts in a ton of little "easter eggs" as it were that make the story come alive. Like when they find the Mercedes hood ornament in the waste.
WoT and Malazan are the most rewarding series I've come across in terms of re-reading.
