Attack on Titan is easily the best piece of Fiction that I’ve ever seen next of Game of Thrones. The story has so much mystery elements, twists, amazing world building and God level foreshadowing. I’d like to see if there are any books that basically has:
-> Very minimal plot armour
-> Mystery where the main character(s) learn about the world at the same pace as the readers
-> Foreshadowing that readers might miss during their first read (AoT spoilers ahead, I was blown away by the level of foreshadowing for when Eren influences his father’s memories to kill the Reiss family, it was foreshadowed waaay earlier in the story)
-> Rich, morally grey characters
In short, if there’s an exact replica or book version of AoT, please do suggest and thanks in advance!!

haha i was at your same exact spot not so long ago! If you like AOT and GOT you will definitely like The First Law books by Joe Abercrombie! Multiple POV, amazing characters, intriguing storylines, everything you could ever want 🙂
For me the Red Rising by Pierce Brown gives me the vibes (very different of AoT) it’s a sci-fi space opera just take a look at it some time.
I second Red Rising. Besides that, books by Timothy Zahn are kind of similar, but there is plot armor.
The Broken Earth trilogy by N.K Jemisin has a very similar vibe
