I love reading books about magic, but I detest books that have vague and unclear definitions and mechanics for magic. I would love it if I could get some recommendations for books with hard magic systems and interesting plots. If you don't know what the term hard magic system means, it is when the rules and limitations for magic are very well defined and structured. Thanks a bunch for the input.

How much Brandon Sanderson have you read?

Why don't you give us a few examples?

I thought Mordant's Need (The Mirror of Her Dreams/A Man Rides Through) were fantastic for this very reason, among others.

Have you read the Harry Dresden books yet?
Also, you must begin reading the Rivers of London books by Ben Aaronovitch. He has a very disciplined approach to the cost-benefits of magic, and has compelling characters as well. It's urban magic and police procedural combined and you'll want to listen to the audios read by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith.
