I wanted to read a fantasy book so I went to r/fantasy on reddit and also checked out my local bookstore: What the FUCK. These books SUCK. How do you fuckers read this shit? You IDIOTS. I have never seen such an uncreative "creative" genre in my life. You all looked at Tolkien and decided 'well that's good enough' - There has been almost no innovation in this space AT ALL for 50 years. Books are dying because publishers and authors alike are afraid of making something REALLY weird and twisted. You'd rather regurgitate the greats. I'm gonna pick up a pen and show you how it's done. You fuckers. Anyone have any good recommendations?
The ‘arc of a scythe’ trilogy. Idk if it counts as fantasy, but it is futuristic and nothing like LOTR lol
