How much do you want to bet that 90% of the people in this thread are likely to buy his book as soon as it comes out? Talk is cheap guys. If you're really fed up then don't support him, don't buy his books, don't read them.
I'm indifferent toward Martin, I've not read any of his books in years. But I always get amused when people bitch about a fantasy series. There's are a lot of books out there, better books. Although, I no longer read multi-volume fantasy books these days.

Saying your fed up is different than saying I'm not going to buy his stuff. Of course I'll buy his book. That's what I'm waiting for and why I'm so peeved. He shouldn't be doing this to us yet he is and for that, he will lost a good deal of his audience because they'll stop caring. I still want to find out what happens so I'll buy the books. It's the people who stop complaining and move on who will not support him. If he keeps this up much longer, he'll have a fan base half the size of what it was. And that will happen when people stop making threads like these or websites about him finishing
Go Hokies!

I don't hate him. But, like you, I'm fed up with him.

Not only is he a writer, but he has really only one successful series.

I said I'm "growing" to hate him. I'm not ready to pay for his death yet.

I agree but emphatically endorse use of the subjunctive "were".

You know whenever the new book is ever released, it'll sell even more copies due to the wait, right?

There's a huge difference between Song of Ice and Fire and Miller's Leibowitz.

which is why I always rant - why review a book on your blog, but not Amazon?

Truly, there's really no reason that you can't be both angry at him and planning to buy the book.
