Consider A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin. Recommended by 1 sources.

“A Game of Thrones reads like a wide-angle historical saga transplanted into fantasy: dozens of named players, shifting third-person POV chapters, and slow-building conflicts that reward patience. The useful part is its dense political maneuvering and richly textured setting—good for readers who like watching alliances form and unravel. Its main limitation is pacing and scale: early setup stretches long, and frequent POV tosses can dilute momentum. Also expect explicit violence and morally ambiguous characters that won't provide tidy catharsis.”
