It’s very worth reading, even unfinished, and even if it never gets finished. That’s heresy in some quarters, I realize, but the story is brilliant. It’s a work of art and nothing I have read in the fantasy genre touches it.
It’s complex, gritty, and multi-multi layered, with great lore and world-building, explorations of politics and war, deeeeeeeep characters, heartbreak, revulsion, and things you absolutely do not see coming. Really gets to the heart of human behavior in all its potential nobility and ugliness and highlights how nearly everyone has shades of both packed together within themselves.
Even if you have already seen the Game of Thrones series, there is a LOT more to uncover and much deeper explanations for everything. Well worth the time invested.
