I wanna read something that's fucking brutal with fighting and sex and all the things, but also WELL WRITTEN (so NOT George R.R. Martin, I can't stand his shit). I want Lord of the Rings on crack and steroids.

It's hard to get through... it's huge, but keeps bludgeoning you with the same cartoonish ideas over and over again until you're just exhausted. Kind of worth reading, just because it does come up in discussions so often, but don't necessarily expect to enjoy it.
