If you want something a little lighter that deconstructs the genre with a very British sense of humor, I can't suggest Discworld hard enough. -- nm - znufrii needs to update his handle Oct 28, 16:00 2

I'll also throw in Rebecca Roanhorse's Sixth World series which only has 2 books so far, but shows tons of potential. -- nm - Bar N Furter 🧛‍♀️ Oct 28, 15:46
