I got A Feast For Crows for Christmas and I'd never even heard of George R.R. Martin before. My fantasy days are sort of behind me, and I don't know if I want to get the first book and start this series. Robert Jordan is my idea of fantasy nightmare; endless sprawling books. A trilogy is the right length -- three acts! Weis and Hickman's Death Gate cycle was good for the first 4, but then the last 3 just dragged. Feist's Magician novels were good for the first two but then wandered off. It sounds like that's what Martin is like.
