No mention of Brandon Sanderson and the Cosmere novels? Instead of a single fantasy world, you get a whole universe!
"All of the books share a single creation myth (though not all cultures are aware of it), a single cosmology, and are connected by an overarching story." [0]
Sure, one could argue that it's still not fully-formed, as it's still in the process of being written. But the same could easily be said for A Song of Ice and Fire.
The Stormlight Archive quickly won a place in my loved series category. I don't think I devoured any book from last year as quickly as when the latest entry in the series was released.
One of my favorite things about Brandon Sanderson is that he proactively engages readers (/u/mistborn on Reddit), and he gives regular status updates on his writing progress. I highly value transparency from authors.
I'd never heard of Earthsea, but the article managed to catch my interest. I'm adding it to my queue.
