Agreed.
I just wish there was a better mix of the two. Sometimes you are in the mood for gritty. Sometimes bunnies and rainbows. The problem that I'm starting to encounter is that I get plenty of dark & gritty but when I want fuzzy bunnies & rainbows...I get dark and gritty. I've wasted a lot of money that way. And learned not to trust a lot of people's recommendations.
But I've learned that a lot of the current crop of sff really isn't for me. I think I'm regulated to the older works (of which there is a slew I haven't read yet) for the time being. And NO GRRM for me. *shudder*
