Blue Adept is very Sci-Fantasy. Space magic mixed with tech magic.

Both solid choices. I always preferred The Elenium trilogy over the Belgariad by Eddings for some reason. Probably because I just liked Sparhawk a lot as a character. You didn't see many middle age main protagonists at the time.

I recently re-read the Wheel of Time series to wash the awful taste out of my mouth that season 1 of the Amazon show left.

I'm currently in the middle of a Riftwar Saga re-read, but I'm probably going to drop it since I've already read the best parts imo. After the first generation of heroes (Arutha, Jimmy the Hand, Martin Longbow, Trask etc) pass on then it just gets a little repetitive. Their children and grandchildren just feel like cheap copies of their forebears.
I like the Elenium, I'm just partial to the "coming of age" trope. The Mallorean saga felt very....weird tone wise.
Wheel of Time is still one of my all time favorites, and introduced me to Brandon Sanderson.

I've not read Riftwar, I'll have to check it out!
