She's more known as a sci-fi author but her fantasy works are outstanding IMO.
Ealdwood trilogy - maybe the best depiction of Sidhe in fantasy fiction (yes, better than Tolkien's just because Cherryh's 'elves' are more 'canonical' in mythology/folklore sense).
Morgaine trilogy - not your run-of-the-mill sword-n-sorcery stuff and because of that, criminally underrated and not known widely.
Fortress pentalogy - ten times more elegantly and immersively written while being still more epic than modern bull**** like Games of Thralls or Witcher.

Thanx for sharing C.J.Cherryh Griantor, somehow I've never came upon while seems pretty much very respected and classic from the googlings I did !! Bookmarked .. Though I really really prefer nowadays due to time constraints to digest shorter stories and not whole series of books but still endless thanx for the heads up!!
p.s. Still discovering gems on your great Epic Metal suggestions, I will post when I'm finished which will take time since I keep discovering gems I relisten .. Thanx for those too!
