I'm looking for a new fantasy book / author to try. Just recently finished the Locke Lamora series of books, really enjoyed them.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Joe Abercrombie books but have struggled to find anything as darkly humorous.

Have read a fair bit of Robin Hobb, Raymond e Feist and David Gemmell so any new recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

In the end I went for Trudi Canavan, Thief's Magic It's alright so far smile

I had read D&L Eddings, Mark Laurence and Patrick Rothfuss.

Had tried N.K. Jemisin but couldn't stick with it.

Trudi Canavan.
Roger Zelazny Amber series.
Derek Landy.
This, especially the first one - Lord Valentine’s Castle - is simply wonderful, I could read it endlessly.
I might try Robert Silverberg as the Trudi Canavan might be one of few books I can't be 4r5ed to finish...

It started well and reminded of a world by another author I read years ago but then went a bit teenage angst.

Cheers for the tips!
