Recommend me sum good fantasy books pls
| What does it have to be fantasy tho?
The most awesome stories about war and politics already happened in our timeline.
There would be enough books about social commentary tbh.

Idunno. Something about modern/realistic settings just rubs me the wrong way. Maybe that's just my crippling need to get away from reality.
| "The deep", by John Crowley.
| Just go read all the Terry Pratchett books.
| 1984 although that book isn't that comedic but it has social philosofical and political criticism but I get the feeling that you already read that book
| (the bible)

| Pages of Pain
| God's Demon, maybe?
| The Kingkiller's Chronicle, by Patrick Rothfuss
| >>246277
Also seconding this. Kingkiller's Chroncles mostly follows a single character's life, but the world around him is pretty darn well-spun.
| The Revenger by Alastair Reynolds. 411 pages and the Genre; Hard Sci-Fi.
| >>244982 I'm reading this. I was shocked by what happened after the changing of king. Why must we spill so much blood?
| >>246384 Awesome book, is't it. There is more to come. As you probably have discovered, it is a relatively small book but by no means a fast read. There is so much happening at all times it feels almost overwhelming.
Not gonna say more. Don't want to spoil your read.
| Deltora Quest!

| The Way of Kings, by Brandon Sanderson.

| Something about politics, war and some philosophical/social commentary, but also combined with adventure and some light comedy sprinkled in. It's not the best comparison (at all) but maybe something written in a similar fashion to Radiant Historia's dialogue and overall plot.
Idunno if there is such stuff though. It's either too gritty for its own good (song of ice and fire for example) or just mary sue adventuring bs like books bout drizzt do'urden.
