Criticism for my fantasy story? It's a rough draft for a general outline. I'm trying to make it a very dark fantasy with gritty, dire themes. I'd really like to see a version of fantasy and magic that's less LotR and more Darkest Dungeon, if anyone's played that.
Maybe the best way to describe it is a realistic take on fantasy and magic that includes all of the bad stuff. I don't want to glance over violence, blood, disease like it's just part of the story. I want it to be gross, course, hopeless, violent, worrying, etc. but I don't want to be gratuitous, or just for the sake of doing those things

Any good fantasy books that incorporate the themes I'm going for?
