The Gandalara Cycle by Randall Garrett & Vicki Ann Heydron is a fun one (available digitally on Amazon). It's a product of its time (soft misogyny comes to mind) but I don't remember anything drastically awful. Escapist fantasy.
The worldbuilding is deft, the stakes ramp up from book to book, and the story unfolds nicely to the Big Reveal in the last book. It's a quick read. Plus: giant telepathic cats.
It might not stay with the quaint forever.
However I had a lot of fun reading the "Mage Errant" books! It's a progression Fantasy (comparable genre with shounen anime) that follows a group of students at a magic school as they grow into their powers as they attempt to become strong magic wielders.
I find the book to not only not be bigoted, but be delightfully inclusive in so many aspects, it also includes characters dealing with trauma in a positive way.
I blazed through this 7 book series like popcorn.
Other than that, there are many good suggestions here!
The Riftwar Saga! Such a fun series that is criminally under-appreciated.
Martha Wells. 'Death of the Necromancer' is a stand alone. Thief and his actress mistress are on a course of vengeance, get side tracked by evil. 'The Wizard Hunters' is the first book of a follow up trilogy featuring their daughter. First book is 1890's tech plus magic, and the trilogy is WW1 level tech. Airships and ocean liners.
Pern might appeal.
