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.

First off, that scene isn't so they don't recognize their faces. It's to look like spirits and scare/shock them. They were a small army trying to use crazy tactics, I don't see what's so wrong about that. I've read it multiple times and I don't remember a point where they go topless implying no one would ever look at their face if they were topless.

As for the author, I don't know much about him, but I like the books. And way I think Michael Jackson is a bad person but I can still enjoy his music.

Nothing wrong with liking what others don't. I just responded cause you said you don't get why it gets so much hate. Of course, you don't have to agree with the reasons.

BTW I just gave you a random example from my mind cause I read it a long time ago, maybe over 20 years or so. It's possible I don't remember it from the book but by some mention online. There were many other complaints about his writing though, but since you like it, and I don't even remember most of it, no point arguing over it. ๐Ÿ˜€
