Hi! I am looking to write fantasy, a kind of notoriously overdone genre. I am curious if there are any “hot takes” on it that look at it from a fresh perspective? I have a long plate of titles to read already but I would be happy to learn what titles you have read and would recommend for somebody who wants to see how other people did interesting fantasy novels.
I will read and judge it eventually, but I want to write broadly accessible stuff, so other things will have priority
