I am now 25 going on 26. Unbelievable.
And I'm 35 now and only two more books in this unfinished series have been released (one with an 18 year break). It is doubtful the series will ever be finished.
But ya know what? I really don't feel like whining about it. I do have around two thousand books on my shelves and throughout my house to read, so I don't fret about what 1/2/4/10 authors are doing so much. It's nice to have millions of books out there to explore

And The Eye of the World was published before I was born. Quit complaining.

If he decides today that he doesn't want to write another book in his life, then he has every right

We've all heard Neil "You think he's God" Gaiman's stupid thoughts. Many of us disagree. *NM*

Also, most of the fans complain more because we hear more about stupid knight figurines

I wish Martin was still 21. Maybe he'd live to finish the series.

Indeed, and you have a right to do so. But not everyone has seen them, and I still agree with him. *NM*

It just seems a particularly bizarre comparison as several books have been published since then.

But only one of them was any good. This leads into a core argument over writing speeds.

It also hinges on the fact that his upcoming book will be fantastic.

No, it doesn't. That will either justify or further condemn the wait.

You'd kill for some Latro action figures though, would't you?
