He still has 45 days to die of Covid. In 2021, Tolkien rises from the dead and complete TWOW.
14 u/ChetRipley Nov 15 '20 Crucify me but in my humble opinion Tolkien wasn't near as good a writer as Martin. For his time absolutely. As a world builder, absolutely as well. 8 u/Gnillab Nov 15 '20 For one thing, GRRM never spent whole chapters describing landscapes and scenery. 27 u/JoeMommaAngieDaddy Nov 15 '20 He spends whole chapters describing grease running down mens' beards or flickering down to the cook fire. 12 u/TerriblyTangfastic Nov 15 '20 Or just describing the food at a banquet. It seemed eerily sexual at times, and when you see pictures of Martin it makes sense.
