Totalitarian fantasy

[Anonymous No.16951976]

I'm tired of beta fantasy books about le diverse teen rebellion bringing down le evil empire.
Can /lit/ recommend a work where the protagonists are actual proud members of a dark, strict and badass kingdom/empire?
I tried Warhammer stuff and it was okay.

No, fantasy is generally trash. Read books for adults.

You’re not familiar with the Trandoshan race. First appearing in ESB in the character Bossk.

"The man in the ornate black body armor leaned over the console, trying to see the armada arranged below, but the curved observation bay window didn't curve out quite far enough. He bumped the edge of his helmet against the plaz, making a multi-toned *donk* sound. He liked the sound, and did it several more times before giving up on the view and activating a holographic representation of the fleet; seventeen thousand carriers, battleships, destroyers and assorted escort frigates and cruisers poised over the capital, each ship a nightmare brought to life, bristling with guns and spiky decorations. None of them would have done well in an atmosphere if they hadn't been particularly over-powered to

Yeah it's pretty positive, I second this recommendation. It's an interesting positive take on a society that many pussies have labeled fascist. It's closer to civic republican.

All of the societies in Warhammer have always been protrayed as needlessly awful, you'd have to have a sub-80 IQ to think any of them are portrayed even remotely positively.

Always bet on trannies to ruin something. They'll find a way. They always find a way.

every society in the future will be totalitarian relative to the past society regardless of what it calls itself or pretends to be. most scifi cannot even conceive of the hell we are in and heading towards. the further you go back the more domains of life are left untouched.
