Give me a book that has creative, innovative fight scenes using magic, and that occurs in a post-industrial society.
So minimum requirements:
1 Has to have fight scenes that you feel are creative, good, innovative, well-executed. Some of these fight scenes need to use magic, the more the better.
2 Must occur in a society that has at least industrial technology. I'm sick of the generic Tolkien-esque medieval fantasy world. I don't care if its steampunk, or diesel-punk, or even cyberpunk, or space opera levels of technology. I just want non-medieval.
Now, for things I'd like to have, you can imagine most of what will be here, good story, good dialogue, good characters, good worldbuilding, good prose, etc. I don't need all of these things, but you know, I'd like some of them.
For things I don't want: No Romance. Characters being in a pre-existing relationship is fine.
Thanks for any recommendations you can give me!!
