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?

This is a collection of books. However, if I'm remembering correctly, each book in the collection can be read separately. They do not depend on the previous entries.

Whenever anyone asks which book setting I wish I could live in and explore, this is my answer: The Culture, by Ian M. Banks. Each book describes a fascinating universe with complex politics and relatively unique powers/characters.
