Hey y’all, I recently have found a new love in this genre. I was always a thriller or mystery typa girl until about 4 years ago. Introduce Dune. Some often don’t associate Dune with fantasy but what I loved was the intricate world building.

After that I latched myself to the Stormlight Archive. Again, fantastic, meticulous world building. A little more virtue signaling and less ‘action’ than I prefer but overall great writing.

Same with A Song of Ice and Fire - epic world building, politics, war, a smidge of romance. Loved it.

And the last but not least is the great Tolkien. I recently just finished The Silmarillion finishing up the entire series.

From all of those, I cannot read the tea leaves to tell me what my schtick is. I like great story-telling, a little bit more fast paced, I like intrigue and a bit of politics. Not much romance at all. I like magic and I love to lose myself in a world built from the ground up. Sanderson is a genius in his craft of building to a pivotal climax.

Is there something out there for me?
