George R. R. Martin or J.R.R. Tolkien: Who's better at lore building?
When it comes the Western part of the world, there are no other writers who have made such a fleshed out world other than these two writers. Paolini who? No one remembers. Rowling who? Avoid that Twitter account. Tolkien and Martin are the writers who made readers want to explore every nook and cranny of Westeros or Middle-earth (although some people end up being bored at times. I've known many people who stated this). Everything in the worlds they've thought up has a history.
