Looking for "R-rated", gritty, gorey high fantasy books (lemmy.world)

I wanna read something that's fucking brutal with fighting and sex and all the things, but also WELL WRITTEN (so NOT George R.R. Martin, I can't stand his shit). I want Lord of the Rings on crack and steroids.

NK Jemisen’s the fifth season was amazing. It won a Hugo. Then the sequel was amazing and different and won the Hugo.

Then the last book in the trilogy was crazier and won the Hugo.

Truly wild magic and a very very brutal world.

Is it necessary to read the previous four seasons as well or can you skip those?
