Recommend me a book?

I originally posted this on GoodReads though wondered if I'd get a better response on here. I've not been on this site for a good few years now but hopefully someone has an idea of some great books for me to read!

---

I'll start off by saying my list on here is not at all exhaustive. I've been reading for the past 15 years on and off and in some cases can't recall a lot of the books I have read until I see their title again.

So this is probably going to be difficult!

If you like a challenge; I'm really interested in fantasy and particularly enjoy books where a particular character who seems weak eventually becomes powerful (I know, I just really dig those scenes where they start to discover their talent!).

Think "The Magician", "The Lightbringer", "Necroscope", "The Painted Man", and probably a ton more I can't recall right now.

To give you an idea of a story I've particularly enjoyed I'd go with the Mistborn series or the Lightbringer. Also really enjoying the Demon Cycle (Painted Man) but there is a caveat.

I hate reading series that aren't complete! I was under the impression the Lightbringer was a trilogy so read the first 2 ready for the third and final chapter though descovered it's now in 4 parts! I have a terrible memory and won't recall most of what happened when I get around to the 4th (if I haven't completely forgotten about wanting to read it even!). The same with the Demon Cycle.

So; can you recommend me a book/series of books that meets that criteria? If you can you have my thanks!

My list for those that have some ideas is at;

Please feel free to make suggestions outside of my scope if you think they may appeal.

Any and all thoughts appreciated.
