Robert Jordan
Another farm-boy-to-destiny epic with a slow opening, ancient evil and sprawling world-building, ideal if you loved following Simon's journey out of his ordinary life into legend.
The Name of the Wind
Patrick Rothfuss
Rothfuss shares Williams's lyrical prose, love of songs and stories within stories, and a young, flawed hero whose growth is told with patience and warmth.
The Fellowship of the Ring (The Lord of the Rings, Book 1)
J. R. R. Tolkien
The root of Williams's elegiac tone: a fading elder race, long journeys through haunted landscapes and a sense that history weighs on every choice the characters make.
