Man, this is such a niche I wish I'd found years earlier! For high fantasy with a genuine slow-burn romance woven into the political intrigue, 'The Priory of the Orange Tree' is an absolute doorstop of a book that delivers. It's got dragon riders, warring religions, and two incredibly powerful women at its core whose relationship feels earned and transformative. The world-building is immense but never overshadows the character development. Honestly, it ruined me for a lot of other fantasy for a while because the scale and payoff were just that good.
If you're okay with something a bit more mythic and with a darker, more lyrical tone, 'The Jasmine Throne' is a masterpiece of intricate plotting and morally complex characters. The power dynamics between a captive princess and a maidservant with hidden abilities are constantly shifting, and the magic system tied to fungal growth is brilliantly creepy and unique. It's not a light read, but the tension and the sheer strength of the leads, both magical and personal, make it utterly compelling.
I feel like a lot of recommendations focus on newer books, which is great, but there's also 'The Salt Roads' by Nalo Hopkinson. It's a challenging, poetic historical fantasy that spans centuries, following the spirits of enslaved African women. It explores queer love and desire among women within the context of immense struggle and suffering. The power is spiritual, ancestral, and born of immense resilience. It's not an easy read, but it's a profound one.
Remember that 'powerful' can mean emotional resilience, not just magical or physical strength. A book like 'The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' is historical fiction, not fantasy, but the titular character's power is in her ruthless ambition and control over her own narrative, and her most significant relationship is with a woman. That kind of power story can be just as compelling as one with sword fights and fireballs.

I’m a huge fan of morally grey heroines, and 'The Traitor Baru Cormorant' is the peak. Baru is an accountant who uses economic warfare to try to bring down the empire that colonized her homeland. Her power is chillingly intellectual; she's a master manipulator playing a long, brutal game. The queer romance is tragic and central to her motivation, making her cold calculus heartbreaking. This isn't a feel-good power fantasy; it's a dissection of how systems corrupt and what kind of person you have to become to fight them.
Baru’s strength is her mind, and it’s a terrifying thing to behold.
