    George RR Martin had a book about confederate vampires I think. Which honestly, vampires are an apt metaphor for slave owners.

      Was it good? His capeshit, was well, shit. As expected. I’m not a ASOIAF defender, but he does have it in him to be talented once in a while.

        His capeshit, was well, shit.

        Wild Cards had an interesting premise, at least. The core premise - that superheroes are segregated by their physical appearance after they transform, and that this social pressure creates Hero/Villain cliques which reinforce the stereotypes - was a rife on the X-men universe that worked. But after that, his narratives are a little superficial.

        Should be noted that GRRM has churned out nine new entries in the Wild Card series between 2011 and 2022. Dude continues to write prolifically. He's just done with that GoT shit.
