The answer is always more Sanderson. Have you read the Reckoners? Steelheart. Also if you haven’t begun you should start the Stormlight Archive. Book 3 drops in less than a month

Elise Kova’s Air Awakens series, I second the Kingkiller Chronicles. If you don’t mind YA, the Fablehaven series by Brandon Mull is fun.

@Audrea I enjoyed it. I’m not really into traditional fantasy. Brandon Sanderson’s writing style kind of bugged me, so I never got through the Mistborn. I also recommend the Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley. It’s about Christianity, Druidism, and an internal struggle between Arthur, Lancelot and the Lady of the Lake. Just amazing

What’s this? Another person who didn’t like Sanderson?? I thought I was all alone in this world!! ?

@Matt I’m glad I’m not alone! I read the first couple chapters and was just not inspired by his dialogue.

@Sara me either. I didn’t like his characters, hated Vin so much, and I just didn’t care at all what happened. I made it about 3/4 of the way through before giving up. I tried Way of Kings too but same thing. I actually enjoyed the prologue of that book but then I was bored out of my mind as I got into the rest of the book. I wish I liked him. He has so much material

Coldfyre Trilogy Or Magister Trilogy by CS Freidman might be enjoyable. I really liked them and looking at the comments it seems you’ve read most of the other biggies! Foundation series if you want some Sci-Fi. With those you’ve got a good 11 books to get through between it and Robots

First Law is such a great series. Have you read the Demon Cycle? Like it as much as first law.

Did you get into the Alloy of Law and the other spin offs of Mistborn? They’re pretty good.

I liked this but for some reason I’m not rushing to pick up the last book.

I think it went a book too long

The lightbringer series by Brent weeks is good aswell, I also like a couple of older series that I still find entertaining like the song of the lioness by Tamora Pierce , or david eddings belgariad series. I also quite like the Trudi canavans Black magician series and for lighter reading the rangers apprentice series or the iron Druid books .
