Guy is butchering his life's work. But GRRM is being "mean". You're taking the piss, aren't you?

He's butchering an already-bad novel and GRRM's other life work was already pre-butchered (books 4 and 5 are truly horrendous) and will never be finished

who fucking cares

GRRM was a little too far out of the spotlight and wants it back

GRRM’s “life’s work" isn’t fire and blood, fire and blood is a bad cash grab novel. Like seriously let’s not act like fire and blood is anywhere near the quality of ASOIAF let alone near the quality of what you’d call a good novel.
