I think I may be the only asoiaf fan to read GRRM’s other work (not all of it but some) and it’s funny how when you read Tuf Voyaging it becomes extremely clear that George is an ex-catholic. For the record, I don’t necessarily recommend anyone read Tuf Voyaging (it’s a little too heavy handed on the anti-overpopulation stuff for me), but it does explain a lot about GRRM. I do however, recommend Sandkings. Sandkings was very good.

the man was able to make a well-written, stunningly shot, thematically sound trilogy based on a theme park ride, I might trust him

“With quarantines, lockdowns, and social isolation on the menu everywhere, and all the usual entertainment venues closing their doors, reading is the best way to pass the empty hours.”
