Should I start reading "A Game of Thrones"?

On the one hand: couple of thousand of pages until I get to the end of the currently published material. On the other hand, George R.R. Martin did an interview in November where he said he's still got just as much left to write in the next book as he had a year ago. So completion looks... unlikely.

But maybe I'll get a few hundred pages into it and hate it?
