What are some recommended Heroic Fantasy books according to the following distinctions?
Heroic Fantasy vs Epic Fantasy. Heroic fantasy is more about an individual or duo going on adventures, trying to save a person, village, kingdom, etc, while epic fantasy usually has several protagonists and is about saving the world.
Heroic Fantasy vs Sword & Sorcery. I consider these genres very similar but would say S&S characters are more morally grey or anti-heroic than heroic fantasy.
So I’m basically looking for fantasy focusing on the adventures of one, or a few characters, who lean towards good, and it isn’t about saving the entire world.
