I’m looking for fantasy novels without a ton of complex names, locations and worldbuilding. I just want something that I can read even if I’m not fully concentrated. Something really simple but engaging. With adventures, sword fights, romance, magic, mysteries, dragons, you name it.
As a side note, I’m not looking for any Brandon Sanderson book in case some of his books may check for what I’m looking for, I’m saving those for later.
Also, I don’t mind it being a book series. If it’s good I can just read the next one then.

Ursula K Le Guin’s Earthsea
Ok, it has a bit a names, but the core of the series is not in complexity for itself.
A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking by T. Kingfisher. Not a huge amount of names. I found this to be a very quick read.
Try out some middle-grade series. Yes, they’re meant for kids (8-12) but they’re generally short and easy reading. Try The Ranger’s Apprentice by John Flanagan and The Unicorn Chronicles by Bruce Coville. I’ve read the first book in The Crone Wars by Lydia Hawke and it wasn’t too complicated to follow. It’s urban fantasy, not high fantasy.
