Oh boy. I was also very excited with the first books of Ice&Fire. I agree that the latter were on the decline.
And then, I discovered the Malazan series (there was this thread here about good fantasy books that domnions players liked, I got tons of useful info from there as well).
W/O exaggaration this is the best I have read so far. It is both witty and deep and has good action sequences and great battles and deep interesting characters and what not. I'm in the midnight tides now - Its somewhat slower in pace but still interesting since it closes lots of gaps.

Most probably the game would be a whatever clone for general consumption, with theme-specific graphics and names database.

My favorite low fantasy series, though.
BTW GRRM haven't disposed of any viewpoint characters yet. All of them are still there (if not necessary alive) save one who should surface in the fifth book.

I read the Malazan series too, I liked that but to that I'd prefer Bakker (The Darkness That Comes Before, The Warrior Prophet, The Thousandfold Thought). At least he is already finished with the first trilogy.
