I'm a huge fan of Lord Grimdark. His sardonic sense of humour is perfectly suited to mine, as well as his characterizations (at least, aside from in Half a War. I didnt care much for the Queen of Tummyaches). I also love his voice in general, it strikes a balance between cutting and evocative. Worst of all, he lets me indulge my vices of cynicism and pessimism, and who doesnt like that?
I'm looking for similar writers. Preferably fantasy or historical fiction, but I'm not very picky. Any recommendations?

Christopher Buehlman’s The Blacktongue Thief.
The Name of The Wind is quite witty, though less dark.
Red Rising is dark, but less witty.
