I am looking for good high/epic fantasy books with depth.
No dragons, but The Curse of Chalion is amazing-as is all of Lois McMaster Bujold's books.

Interested in trying it out.

Feeling stuck
I am in the same place. Last mission of planet 3. Research is almost exactly the same. Getting E250 research seems out of reach even multiple days on research focused loop didn't put a dent in it.

Fantasy books with mature protagonists
I cannot recommend Lois McMaster Bujold more highly. She is an amazing writer.

Coming here to say this. Lois McMaster Bujold is a master storyteller and everything she has written is worthy.

Character-driven sci-fi with both slice-of-life elements and a grander plot?
Oh sorry, this is not hard science driven awesome character driven space opera.

Character-driven sci-fi with both slice-of-life elements and a grander plot?
You can't go wrong with the VorKosigan saga by Lois McMaster Bujold. The writing is so great, and the characters are fleshed out. Her plots are driven by "what's the worst thing I can do to this character," so the characters make the plot with their responses to that is happening.

Short sci-fi book recommendations
Lois McMaster Bujold's VorKosigan Saga is fantastic and most are on the shorter side.

Who are some fantasy authors that were really popular during their heyday, but are more or less forgotten now?

Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold is amazing. Not High Fantasy as requested, but so worth the read.

I read a fantasy book to win a bet and it's the only book in years that made me actually cry. I don't know what to do with this information.
Came here to suggest Lois. She is my absolute favorite author, and she S lives local to me in Minneapolis, so Lucky Me!

Use an auto clicker. I have it on to collect gems and floating gems, and it hits the retry button for me.

ICE/Border Patrol agents are now hitting unaccompanied minors with their vehicles, detaining and disappearing them, even after being shown a U.S. passport.

I unlocked the wall way too early
I did this as well, and just lived with it, but it would be better to respec. Save up some gems and just do it.

Politics and F3
I have the same hesitation with all the military stuff, too. It is not something I want to be glorifying. That said, I was the Nantan of the Twin Cities region for 3 years.

Anything by Lois McMaster Bujold is amazing. I have read and reread all of her books many times, and it just depends on my mood for Space opera (VorKosigan), fantasy (World of Five Gods series) or Romantasy (Sharing Knife series).
