Sanderson is on the opposite spectrum. He doesn't write gritty and he doesn't write sex, all things abound in Martin's work. Abercrombie would be 100x better choice if he could hold off on the humor that is characteristic of his work.
Nonetheless, in case Martin dies, I think the series will remain unfinished. IIRC he is against anyone finishing his works.
I would think that Daniel Abraham or/and Ty Franck would be the ones to finish ASOIAF if anything happened to GRRM. They surely both know how it ends, are close friends and business partners with GRRM, and Abraham already has experience writing the characters (he's the author of the graphic novel adaptation).
