I've been really into Brandon Sanderson lately and finished Wind's Promise last month. Looking for something with similar worldbuilding and magic systems that came out recently. Not interested in romance-heavy stuff.
If you're vibing with Sanderson's intricate magic systems, check out what's been coming out from authors like Christopher Buehlman and some of the newer epic fantasy releases - there's been some solid stuff hitting shelves with that same level of worldbuilding detail.
I've been grabbing books between gaming sessions and honestly the market's been pretty good for that specific style lately, though I'd recommend checking Goodreads or r/Fantasy to see what readers are saying about the 2025-2026 releases since new stuff drops constantly and I might not have caught everything. The key is filtering for the ones that focus on systems and lore rather than romance subplots, which actually narrows things down nicely since that's what a lot of recent fantasy has been leaning into.
