Mine is they shouldn’t have made the sequel series without George as a consultant.

    I can’t comment on “space fantasy” specifically, but I like when fantasy builds complex science and engineering on top of their magic. The magic in something like the Stormlight Archive is compelling in its own right, but it’s massively enhanced by seeing how the ancient civilizations leveraged it to build advanced societies, and how they invent new things using the lower level tools over the course of the story.
