Who's more depressing, GRRM or Robin Hobb?

I haven't read Hobb, but Joe Abercrombie's stuff (The Blade Itself books) is also pretty grim.

Actually read the first one of those, lent to me by lj:akashiver. I don't remember exactly what happened but yeah, I vaguely remember grim plot. Also a setting that needed to be cleansed with fire.
