From Mistborn: The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson. Why does all fantasy have to be like that?
Please recommend some fantasy novels with themes of real liberation to me. I love fantasy but I hate that it's always a new monarchy people happily submit to...
His books are generally good, the worldbuilding and magic systems are usually well put together, he takes the effort to try and represent marginalized people in his books, like there was a person with paralyzed legs in one of his books and he took the advice of people with that disability to represent her well.
