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.
If you're interested in podcasts. The Silt Verses is about what capitalism would be like if gods were real and its crazy good. Bonus, one of the main characters is trans and it doesn't make a big deal out of it, its not even a plot point.
