    fantasy novels lean on clones of IRL cultures so much because inventing folk knowledge of a culture unlike your own is a staggering cognitive feat, @StevenBrust is either good at it or fakes it well using Magyarisms, the other ones i can think of are LeGuin, Wolfe, and Jemisin

        Fully agree. Someone pointed me toward Brust two months ago and I can't put his stuff down. The plots are pretty standard fantasy stuff, but the characters are good and the worlds are enthralling.

        Still, it should be possible if someone were to set their mind to it and focus long-term on the synthesis

        For a truly spectacular job of inventing a folk culture, there's this: http://bestfantasybooks.com/blog/review-a-saga-of-the-reindeer-people-by-megan-lindholm/ …

        Harry Harrison's Eden series is great too for that too.

        JM McDermott's Dogsland trilogy I think pulls this off. Some Kij Johnson shorts too. It's not the flashy stuff but the solidity.
