Why do people claim GRRM is a good writer?
I don't think I've ever seen someone claim this. he's just a bootleg tolkien, who himself is just a discount walter scott

all these posers in the thread don't recoginze Ararararagi NIsioisin prose, shame
Smol needs loving, Ararararararararararararagi simply knows how the world works.Also, I've only read the first GoT book and found the man's prose to be a zero issue sort of fine. Had he been published 200 years ago in England few would be complaining but that just means this board is largely dissonant as fuck. Grass is greener; wrong generation, and so on.
>>24112139>This looks like something out of monogatari series.That's because it is.
>>24110322Betrothal at a young age was common, actual marriage less so. The entire point of marriage from both a religious and practical standpoint was to produce children. So marrying a woman before she could have children was kind of pointless. Marriages were often made for dynastic reasons, or financial ones for commoners, but betrothals were usually enough to secure those alliances. Only if there was some pressing need to cement the alliance beyond the level of betrothal would the marriage be done before the bride was ready to fulfill her duties. And girls also used to get their periods later than they do now. These days it's not uncommon to have girls as young as 12 getting their monthly, but even just 200 years ago you rarely saw it in girls younger than 15, and most didn't get it until they were 16 or 17. So considering childbirth is the primary practical and religious reason for marriage (to produce heirs which bind two families together by blood), this means marriage before 16 or 17 served little purpose.

>>24110241Weird pedo mentions aside this writing is indeed too mechanical to take seriously.

>>24114989nta, but it's pretty obvious what he means if you're not low IQ
>>24115181A sign of low IQ is thinking your general sense of perception of subjective matter MUST BE shared by someone, everyone, else too. No, it is not pretty obvious to me but if, like you said, it is in fact objectively so, then, following said logic, you must find little difficulty in providing ample proof.

>His thoughts turned to Tysha, who had so briefly been his lady wife. It was Jaime, he thought, despairing. He was my own blood, my big strong brother. When I was small he brought me toys, barrel hoops and blocks and a carved wooden lion. He gave me my first pony and taught me how to ride him. When he said that he had bought you for me, I never doubted him. Why would I? He was Jaime, and you were just some girl who'd played a part. I had feared it from the start, from the moment you first smiled at me and let me touch your hand. My own father could not love me. Why would you if not for gold?He's good
