I also don't like Martin's writing style. But I love the lore. I just can't do another series. What's one book that has the kind of worldbuilding that made us all love (and then hate the unfinished state of) A Song of Ice and Fire?

No, that book is just miserable in my book. It is great tho.
Hmm thinking about it the other books from him were not less miserable.
