I'd vote Erikson. I haven't read it yet, but I say that having soured on GRRM. Book 4 was horrible, and 5 wasn't a whole lot better. Like others here, I'm also concerned if he'll ever finish it. I read Martin has a contingency for the tv series to finish it. (He's told the producers how it should end), but said he doesn't want another writer finishing it should that be necessary. It sounds like he'd leave the readers hanging. He doesn't seem to be in a hurry to finish writing it, and heaven forbid he write anything during football season and miss his beloved Jets.
