Date: November 20th, 2023 09:07 (UTC)High fantasy isn't my area of expertise, so can't help with 'the plot sounds like ...'. But authors that write high fantasy, hmm. Janny Wurts, Tad Williams come to mind as possibly the right time frame and genre. Margaret Weiss mostly wrote with Tracy Hickman, and those I think were DnD adventure novels.
Librarything has a similar authors option, which gives a list for similar to Janny Wurts. From there (or one of the other 'similar authors' links) I found Jane Welch, Django Wexler, Dave Wolverton, Freda Warrington, Angus Wells.
I also turned up Martha Wells in my search, but I have read their work, and I can't think of anything that matches. Similarly Walter Jon Williams who I think of as cyberpunk, but some of their work that I've never seen is tagged fantasy, so I guess I missed some of their stuff!
