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.

    Read Parable of the Sower if you want something leftist.

    But as for fantasy...

    Perhaps Strike The Zither by Joan He?
