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.

I really enjoyed The Poppy Wars series. I devoured all three books after reading her first book Babel, or the Necessity of Violence. Would recommend all of them. Babel isn't high fantasy by rather a fantasy reimagining of history
