Fantasy series with gods or mythology

Looking for a series with a pantheon of interesting, personified, gods that actually interact with the world and characters instead of sitting on the sidelines.

I really like god of war and I think that’s one of the best examples I can think of for what I’m looking for (although I would prefer a series with a entirely new pantheon not one from real history I’m already familiar with Norse Greek and Egyptian gods enough).

Stormlight archive is my favorite series. Not really anything to do with their gods (shards are not really what I’m looking for as they don’t interact a lot) but I do like the epic moments and worldbuilding if that helps you come up with recommendations.

Side note: I know people are going to recommend Malazan, and I tried reading it but it read more like a historical text than a fantasy epic to me. I couldn’t really fall in love with the characters because they were so… distant I guess. No hate to malazan just not my cup of tea.
