Hey guys
Can you guys recommend me books similar to The Name of the Wind, The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, the His Dark Materials trilogy, American Gods, Norse Mythology, and Good Omens? I am looking for epics with deeply imaginative stories and a literary, almost mythological quality to them, featuring rich world-building, folklore, and lyrical prose that carries a bardic or oral-tradition feel. The worlds should feel historically dense, highly descriptive, and detailed, as if they existed long before the story began. I am open to epics across different settings and genres: classic fantasy worlds, alternate versions of our own world, dystopian worlds, cyberpunk worlds, conspiracy-driven worlds, technology-driven and transhumanist worlds, steampunk worlds, or steampunk worlds built around a specific ethno-religious culture and mythology. Thematically, I am drawn to stories about resisting or fighting against a tyrannical or oppressive authority, or about a massive cosmic quest with stakes beyond the individual. The story can be told from any perspective, including the villain's.
