There's a lot of good ideas for landscapes and conflicts in the Sword and Sorcery genre of literature, pulp though it may be. Think "Conan the Barbarian". There's a whole genre of similar literature, and there's a pretty good digest of it that I use for inspiration.
Also, you'd be amazed at how ripe the mythos of H.P. Lovecraft is for crafting fantasy worlds. Most people only know of him vaguely as the Cthulhu creator, but his Dream Cycle is a pretty good dark fantasy setting, and even has a map associated with it. Here's one of my favorite tales.
The lore of the Dark Tower saga by Stephen King can't be overstated as a goldmine for fantasy and sci fi worlds. I've drawn heavily from it in my own world building.
Finally, I have always been deeply in love with The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury, because of their depictions of an alien landscape and lamentations over a long-vanished race, which is something that transfers well into a DnD world. I'd definitely recommend giving those stories a read.
