if one wants to talk 'milking a series' however, robert jordan will always be my go-to example and his protege sanderson seems to be headed in the same direction with his (planned) 10 part way of kings series.
I find a lot of people who thought Jordan had gone too far are willing to give GRRM the B of the D. They're not all hard -a$$ like DD.

I haven't read ADWD or commentary on it ( want to avoid spoilers) but from what I can glean, there will have to be some MAJOR action in Book 6 to avoid mass bail outs. And Book 6 has to be here fairly quickly as well.
