How accurate is this this assessment? The pacing really slows down in Dance and Crows.>North is very underexplored>Iron Islands always delivers kino worldbuilding but lame characters>Wall is awesome as soon as Stannis or Mance is involved>everything beyond the Narrow Sea is 'Skip Chapter' material, even the author tires of Daenerys in Crows, it seems>River lands is the biggest shithole imaginable. Everyone is a fucking rapist or a killer, every single roaming band of thieves minus one just walks around his place raping. It makes you not want to live in this world>Westernlands is just there for Tywin to brag about how powerful he is>Dorne is filler>Reach people never get anything done>every chapter involving Dragonstone / Davos is KINO OF THE HIGHEST ORDER and the best literature about being a father that a childless author ever wroteWhy is GRRM so good with good fathers? Cressen / Stannis, Davos / his children and Edric Storm. Tywin is evil incarnate, but some fathers in this shows that maybe he always wanted a kid.

>>25124020>The pacing really slows down in Dance and CrowsThat's because Gurm realised he was onto a moneyspinner, and decided to drag out the story into infinity.As they say in publishing: "Mo' books, mo' money."
>>25125497Dumb theory. You have to release the books to get paid.
>>25125557Dumb response. The money kept rolling in, and Gurm realised he could quiet-quit.
