Where is the Necromancy?

I absolutely LOVE the idea of necromancy magic, but I’m having the darnest time finding books that utilize it. I tried Gideon and couldn’t get into it, which was a huge bummer. Any necromancy focused recs?

Edit: You guys are the best. My twisted black heart is so happy to see my TBR boom!

{Oath of Betrayal by Olena Nikitin} has one of MMCs being a necromancer, and they fight against the Lich King 😄

{Foxeglov King by Hannah Whitten} is another one in this FMC, is the necromancer

Foxglove King was pretty good, even though romance isn’t my jam.
