I love fantasy novels and I'm trying to read more but my issue is always that I can't keep track of the heaps of jargon.
Introducing new terms for common tropes, overly lengthy explanations of specific magic, long complicated names for no reason other than to try and be unique.
I respect an authors vision but it just makes books too dense to wade through for me and feels unnecessary in my experience most of the time.

I was about to type The Expanse but realize you want fantasy not sci fi. I will follow this thread closely
Read urban fantasy. They are set in our own world, so they’re easy to read. I suggest **Alex Verus** series, **Nightside** series and **Dresden Files** series.
Also, if you like sword and sorcery try **Hawk and Fisher** series. Simon R. Green generally write in a straightforward way.
