I recall reading a nice and hilarious series about a goblin living in a mountain which was full of of old treasures and whatnot, resulting in constant adventurers raids. It was definitely inspired by classic fantasy and D&D, but followed a story where the goblin was for a reason I don't remember forcefuly incorporated into one adventuring party as a guide of sorts.
Nevermind, the book's name is Goblin Quest, released 2004 - so you know it's a classic fantasy pre-current weird era.

There's also The Iron Teeth: A Goblin's Tale, although it's not amazing and falls off later one. Still a decent read, though.

Notice how most of the non-human protagonists are goblins? Fancy that, there was another popualr book recently called Goblin Emperor. Fuckers don't write about dragons, only about goblins. Well, writers and readers do love underdogs, and no better one that stinky small goblin.

Tentatively, consider Kitty Cat Kill Sat (https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/46113/kitty-cat-kill-sat).). It's a finished webnovel about a genetically altered cat(?) supervising a cosmic station on its own after the world went to shit. I DIDN'T read it, but heard only praise about it from people with good taste.

Going back to Dragons, there's Temeraire series (two protagonists, one dragon the other hsi rider), but I don't share the praise others have for it. A decent alt-history read, but I couldn't finish the series. Too dry.

For last, recently there was this story about an Animated Armor that was supposed to be a part of a dungeon, but left to the big wide world for whatever reason. Haven't read it, but supposedly it's good - it's name is 'Armor' by C.B. Titus.
