“I haven’t seen the show or read his books. How do they compare to Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time series?”
Unlike the Wheel of Time, Martin’s book don’t completely suck ass.
I just finished the final Wheel of Time book, by the way, and it bugs me that the NYT compared Jordan’s imaginary world to Tolkein’s, which was printed on every cover of those 14 books. Are they just stupid or something? The two were nothing like one another.
