I wanna read something that’s fucking brutal with fighting and sex and all the things, but also WELL WRITTEN (so NOT George R.R. Martin, I can’t stand his shit). I want Lord of the Rings on crack and steroids.

    Lies of Locke Lamora is beautifully written gritty fantasy. Thus far there are 3 books in the series.

    I’ve never read the Warhammer 40K books so I can speak to the quality of writing, but the series definitely matches the genre of interest.

      I really enjoyed reading 40k books when I was younger, but they’re generally shit writing. The kind of complete schlock that is good when you want to turn off the brain.

      The Gentleman Bastard sequence is fantastic, Lies of Locke Lamora hooked me so hard. Can’t wait for the other 4 books. Highly recommend it.
