Got any more details than that? A character, a plot point, anything? 'Arcadia' is a very generic word when it comes to fantasy, being a Grecian Utopia.

ninja edit - Waitasec; checked through another listing - this it?

Might I recommend David Anthony Durham? He made his mark as an author of historical fiction (did a fictional biography of Hannibal called Pride of Carthage that I also enjoyed), but his most recent/famous work is an epic fantasy trilogy called Acacia - it's somewhat in the vein of Game of Thrones, but a) it's actually DONE, b) most of the main characters are POC and c) it has some fairly topical social commentary

I'll also recommend The Acacia Trilogy by David Anthony Durham. All three books are finished and published. The author develops and escalates the use of magic really well throughout the series. I highly recommend it.

I suggest you try [Acacia] (http://www.amazon.com/Acacia-War-Mein-Book/dp/0385722524/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1407035427&sr=1-1&keywords=acacia). I was in mourning after I finished Name of the Wind; nothing seemed as engaging and absorbing. I was happy to stumble upon Acacia. Personally I didn't care for the second one, but that's just me, I am sure it had many fine qualities LOL.
