  • Need suggestion novel(s)/series on medieval setting with good world-building.

  • Prefer peaceful story with less warfares/politics. I have enough of war and politics stuff. I want peace.

Fool by Christopher Moore

This may not be exactly what you're looking for but it's lighthearted and medieval. I picked it up because i was told it was as if The King's Wit from The Way of Kings wrote a book, if you've read that.

It does have politics but they couldnt be described as serious at all. It's funny and lewd and a bit immature but i really enjoyed it.

Have you read Tress of the Emerald Sea, it's written in the style of Hoid telling a story. It's a really fun book.

Actually, this might be a good suggestion for OP too. @hahattpro@lemmy.world . If you like The Princess Bride, you should enjoy the book. Though, most of the book is on the ship, so not sure if it exactly meets your medieval requirement.

I started it but stopped after seeing it was Hoid. I havent read Mistborn yet and Wit was by far my favorite character in Way of Kings. I was

spoilera bit bummed to find out he was across all the books in the way i did. I dont even know his whole deal yet but i imagine his reveal in the Way of Kings was a big deal and wish i found out that way.

I have The Final Empire now and plan on reading it after i finish book 2 of The Witcher.
