So I started reading the Name of the Wind and couldn't past the part where he fucks a fairy or wtv. Shit books.
But I now craving for a really good fantasy books.
So Veeky Forums, besides LotR and aSoIaF are there some really good fantasy books?
pic unrelated

Gormenghast. Haven't read it because fantasy is not my thing but apparently it's amazing.
>ASOIAF >really good You're gonna have a bad time on this board.
Lincoln Miller
Who the fuck says that they are not good?
Samuel Allen
So you read until nearly finishing book 2.
At least we accept GRRM enough to loathe it, Rothfuss a shit
Mason Flores
Last time I checked, Veeky Forums hated GRRM and GRRMposting was a huge meme. Guess times have changed, huh.
Jack Williams
I was having some fun with it, not because I tough it was good.
Joseph Ward
I really don't get it how you can find those books bad. The only thing that I hate is the fact that he might never release WoW and finish the series
Adrian Adams
Refer to the /sffg/ containment thread
Oliver Garcia
It didn't that much, there was a recent ASOIAF thread not two days ago. It's just more subdued, memeposting is now Wolfeposting
Fair enough.
Jaxson Butler
His writing style and descriptions are objectively bad. His plot is good I guess, but you have to admit that he's no Tolkien.
Elijah Nguyen
Thank you I did now know about this
Nolan Phillips
Yeah I agree to some extent. For me is a lot more about the story and world and character building. And in that regard I think the books are great
Zachary Barnes

Jonathan Ramirez
Bas-Lag trilogy
Parker Gomez
I'm just say it once, then i'm back to grrm shitposting. Song of Ice and Fire's first novel is great, one of the best fantasy books ever written. Second novel is continuation, a tinny bit worse. Third is still good, but showing cracks. After that it seriously goes down, and it goes down bad. I mean, it's obvious he's got writers block, and it shows in his work. It's a shame really, but what can you do.
That is fairly accepted view, but we shitpost him for shitposting prosperity.
Matthew Wilson
What other fantasy books are on par with Game of Thrones?
Camden Mitchell
Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb. Beautiful memories reading that.
Alexander Foster
Robert E Howard's Conan stories and Book of the New Sun are much better.
Jose Howard
The Chronicles of the Black Company
Noah Young
Reading it now, really good.
Can you actually give any reasons why you didn't like Name of the Wind? Besides what you said, because the whole sex shit with the god is retarded, and pretty much everything after that in Book 2 is shit too so i don't blame you.
Mason Hernandez
>objectively bad When will this meme end? It's an opinion, not a fact
Bentley Hall
No, it's a fact.
Hunter Martinez
The Dark Eidolon and Other Stories
Aaron Carter
I didn't like the main character and I found the story very hard to take seriously. Scenes like the one where he makes grown man cry with his Lute at the Eolian. The fact that he is OP and that there was no real sense of danger.
I was entertained by the books up to a point. I found the beginning of the first book not that bad actually.
I am on the phone so I don't feel like typing much more than this but I think you can get my point
David Diaz
Btw guys thanks for the fantasy books you recommended I will start reading them after I finish the one I just started :D
Thomas Smith
Broken empire trilogy is a bit flawed but does several things absolutely amazing.
