Another author I now have to read now. Thanks a lot guys, as if I don't have enough on my list.

West Europeans are jealous of American power and success and resentful that we always have to save their butts. East Europeans of course know better but they aren't loud enough or are ignored. It's as simple as that.

Can you tell I'm not in a good mood today?

No, not really.

You could add George R.R. Martin's A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE to your list if you wanted. They are political intrigue and religious conflict and war books set in a fantasy world. The best series I've ever read. Though I couldn't tell you what his political views are from reading his books.

I bet I could.

I remember seeing people all over the place saying the things you are now saying about Martin and ASOIAF. Now you are one of them. For shame, Snowman. For shame.

I made a promise to stop going crazy over Martin and stop raving about him about five days ago. I just can't stop myself. I really do think they put drugs in the book and when you flip the pages they are released and inhaled.

EDIT: So, why don't you read the books and tell me what his political views are?
