George R.R. Martin, author of the Song of Ice and Fire books on which Game of Thrones is based, plans to talk about "everything that's gone wrong with House of the Dragon."

Martin is a character-first writer, which is nice, but I also like plots that gallop forward with mystery-style page turners at the end of every chapter. Roger Zelazny is that style of writer, and one of my favorites. Take a look at The Chronicles of Amber and Lord of Light.

The Dying Earth series is fun.

A friend recently recommended The Clan of the Cave Bear and The Sharing Knife to me, but I have yet to read those.

Sorry for the late reply - thanks for the recs! I have read and enjoyed Zelazny so I'll definitely check out the other ones :)
