So I've been reading about fantasy books for a while and it seems there's a huge difference in opinion about which series is GOAT.

Out of the following, which series would you recommend as the best?

The First Law trilogy- Joe Abercrombie
The Malazan Book of the Fallen- Steven Erikson
The Kingkiller Chronicle- Patrick Rothfuss
A Song of Ice and Fire- George R R Martin
The Stormlight Archive- Brandon Sanderson
The Wheel of Time- Robert Jordan

Wow, Pan-Europeanism uniting the descendants of Western civilisation really frightens some people.

Interesting!

Please recommend me novels that are similar in atmosphere to Skyrim. Cheers.

Recommend me a fantasy series or book that has a similar atmosphere to the video game Skyrim.

Cheers.

An intelligent person aware that they lack the physical prowess to be useful or even stay on their feet in a physical confrontation will use their intelligence to avoid such confrontations. Whether it's simply running for the nearest door when shit hits the fan, using your intuition to avoid getting into situations where shit has a high probability of hitting the fan or talking your way out of a fight when shit does hit the fan- you've got some options- same as anyone, really.

Haven't you ever played D&D or some other Roleplay? You use your strengths and weaknesses BOTH to your advantage. That's life.
