@LawrenceGerald He's good with clever dialogue and creating interesting outlier characters. Ironically for a fantasy writer he self-admittedly hates including the supernatural/magical in his stories (lol), which is funny because all I really remember out of Game of Goons is that both the Faceless Men and the White Walkers were really fascinating concepts.
Pass on the rape porn and retarded subversion of heroism. This is why he can't finish the series, BTW. He despises the human spirit and urge to transcend, probably because he is a morbidly obese asocial nihilistic loser. All good fantasy stories are the monomyth reinterpreted. He doesn't have the chops.
