Grimdark/low-fantasy recommendations needed to fill a gap (feddit.uk)

The Outlaw Empire by Nicholas Eames is supposedly releasing this year, so I need something chunky to fill the gap. I’ve gone through Abercrombie and Lawrence as you might expect, and yes I have read the hell out of The Expanse. I don’t want to start Game of Thrones until I know there is a last book :P

Anyone have any suggestions that might scratch the itch?

But Assassin's Apprentice (and other Robin Hobb novels) its much more character driven, and only the main characters' character development than ASOIAF. And its not as fast or action packed as ASOIAF, its more subtle and intrigue focused.

All reasons I like it more! 😁

I guess I think they're comparable because of the similarities in the settings. And the dragons!
