I recommend Michael Moorcock's The History Of The Runestaff. It's an omnibus of four short novels. It is tautly written in small chapters, with no long passages of exposition, with each novel being about 200 pages.

It is a book without pretension, written in the Robert Howard pulp style, following a young German prince's revenge against an evil British empire in a future 'dying earth' low fantasy setting. Sword fights, castles, journeys, and vestiges of advanced technology treated like magic.
