Do you have suggestions for other Authors/books? I liked all the Cosmere books to varying degrees.

I read Brian McClellan powder mage books, which are sort of similar and enjoyed those. I also read Cradle series by Will Wight which is not similar, but I enjoyed it a lot and it was an easy break from some more dense reading.

To tell the truth I haven't read many other fantasy series. Sanderson finished off the Wheel of Time series, which I've heard is good. The first book Game of Thrones book was excellent, though I found it quite dense and haven't got round to reading any more of his. I've got the Assassin's Apprentice on my wishlist as someone recommended that too.
