Who's more depressing, GRRM or Robin Hobb?

The description of Martin made me think of someone else, though I forget whom. Not Glen Cook, who does mention it in having his narrator acknowledge that he mostly doesn't mention what his mercenary brethren get up to. Though there's a rescue from what the other side -- sort of -- is doing.

Oh! 1632. West Virginia town catapulted into the Thirty Years War. Beginning is fairly graphic in what the locals are doing, or willing to do. So far the Americans are taking the high road.
