Suggest me a fantasy with a woman protagonist 50 or older
I just read {{The Keeper’s Six by Kate Elliott}} and realized I don’t know many books with that type of protagonist. I am tired of YA coming of age fantasy. No extreme violence please! Thank you!!
I haven’t read it yet, but mid life bounty hunter is pretty popular and similar to what you’re describing

Oh–and the Redoubtable Pali Avramapul by Victoria Goddard. It’s a companion book to a series, also with many protags 50+

Try the Witches series in Discworld by Terry Pratchett. I’d start with Witches Abroad even though it’s not the first. You can work forwards or backwards from there, whichever you prefer.

Tea with the Black Dragon by R.A. MacAvoy.
Paladin of Souls by Lois McMaster Bujold (this is a sequel to The Curse of Chalion, but can be read stand-alone). Ista is a relatively minor character in it.
