Green tick - would recommend
Red cross - lost interest/didn't finish
Red tick - fun but not GOAT or too overrated to recommend
dl - has been torrented/deDRMed
If it was me I'd add Fforde's Shades of Grey, City of the Saved and Watts' Firefall
I dropped GOT because it was a fucking chore with the POV switching. Prince of Nothing had great prose but it seemed to go nowhere and every time it suckered me in the scene changed again. Blood Song was basically assassin school tier boring. The Blade Itself probably better for people who like grimdark (Glokta, Bayaz, the other side and the ending is GOAT though.) City of the Stairs looks like it was supposed to be fun but honestly I can't remember a single memorable instant that happened in it. I think I finished the whole thing but it made absolutely no impact on me.

Recently I really enjoyed Zelazany's Chronicles of Amber. It started off good, got shit somewhere in the middle of the first book and then it got fucking GOAT. He did a great job with the politicking and that was immensely fun. I was expecting Corwin to stabl everyone in the back in the first and second book but it didn't really happen.
