GRRM is an amazing writer, very gritty and realistic but at the same time completely fantasy. A slightly-spoiler warning, a viewpoint character dies in the first book...
OMG, I know exactly what you mean! Just put the last three of his books that I've yet to read, his first trilogy, on request at the library. :D It's fun drowning in his writing.
Okay then! The emperor's death shocked me, though in a way it was predictable -- I kept hoping against hope that someone would walk in and save him, even though I knew that it wasn't going to happen. *sigh* Have you read Tigana? I'm dying to rant about the ending.
Oooh, Tamora Pierce writes lovely fluff! Has the next book in her Circle Reforged quartet come out yet?
