The Stormlight Archives. Or, as I like to call it, Fantasy Saturday Morning.
How much of it...? It's distinctly Gen X in influences (for the example the fourth book being
Die Hard
), but I can't think of too many Saturday Morning Cartoons with nothing like the main villain (
the utilitarian monarch, not Odium
), or the genocidal war of anmbilation being described in as much detail as it is.

Sanderson pushes R pretty hard, though PG-13 is the natural point he loves in (because he knows what people want). If you thought Stormlight is too light, then Mistborn may be more your speed.
