I feel the same way about game of thrones.....but Sanderson is young and prolific, and hasn't been made wealthy by having a wildly successful TV show made from his stories. He also seems genuinely motivated to write for writing's sake.

I would say that George R.R. Martin is writing for writing's sake, which is why he doesn't churn out endless mediocre doorstoppers, the way some writers do.

If you buy a Kindle book, it goes to a specific device. That can be a free desktop application, a phone or tablet app or an actual Kindle. In any case, it's registered from a specific Amazon store.
