LotR is a product of a slower era. I wonder how a modern/recent example would compare

There's certainly slow books still being written but most fantasy books in specific assume a certain amount of knowledge about a tolkien-esque world. You can do entirely new worlds, and some people do, but most stories are about people and the choices they make.

Maybe Robert Jordan or James SA Corey?
