I'm going to suggest Beyond Redemption. It's currently on sale for a $1 and is getting a lot of end of year buzz. I just bought it yesterday and it seems great so far.
As for violent fantasy, try The Red Knight by Miles Cameron ($10) and The Emperor's Blades which is on sale for $5. Both are fantastic.
I am a fan of this style also.
The Novice: Summoner: Book One (The Summoner Trilogy 1)
​
Opening Moves (The Gam3 Book 1) This series takes place in a school like environment.
​
The Hound of Rowan: Book One of The Tapestry Very YA, but Fun.
​
The Emperor's Blades: Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne, Book I A lot of the book takes place in a "school"
I read Harry Connolly's The Great Way series. It was decent but not super memorable. Probably going to try this series (Brian Staveley) next for no reason other than good Amazon reviews.
You mentioned dragons, so u/JDHallowell's Dragon Fate and Dragon Blade immediately spring to mind.
Some of the most enjoyable traditional-style modern fantasy you're likely to run across comes from u/MichaelJSullivan - the Riyiria books.
U/BrianStaveley's work, while not exactly "stereotypical fantasy", has a lot of what makes those old books great reads. Worth checking out.
I haven't read it, but the two brothers and a sister made me think of The Emperor's Blades: https://www.amazon.com/Emperors-Blades-Chronicle-Unhewn-Throne-ebook/dp/B00FCQQCX6/
