I agree, I think there is an audience for every approach. I like a lot of Guy Gavriel Kay books and he is closer to historical fiction with how lightly used the fantasy aspects are in some of his novels. Clearly you are passionate about your writing and enjoy the fantasy genre, who are a few of your favorite fantasy authors that you would recommend?

Off the top of my head, I'd recommend Jim Butcher, Larry Correia, Robert E Howard, C. L. Moore and Leigh Brackett.
I do have some Jim Butcher books lined up on my to read list, perhaps I'll give those a try next.
A great choice. His first few books are just okay, and riddled with the usual beginners' issues, but his later ones are incredible. He's earned his sobriquet as the dean of urban fantasy.
