I usually do not enjoy fantasy novels, but I loved the Poppy War series. I liked it because it read like historical fiction with fantasy elements. I liked how dark it was.
I struggle finding similar books or series because I hate cheesy fantasy or romantasy. I love LOTR and the Hobbit but have read those and watched the movies a million times.
Are there any other books/ series similar to the Poppy War? Doesn't need to be fantasy, happy with historical fiction or whatever else.

maybe Babel by the same author?
Maybe The Grace of Kings by Ken Liu (fantasy) and Genghis by Conn Iggulden or The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell (historical fiction)
