Well, 'The Earthsea Cycle' by Ursula K. Le Guin. It has a world of magic, with wizards and strange creatures, and a hero's journey to discover himself and save his world. It has that same sense of a large, magical world as Final Fantasy. Another is 'The Dark Tower' series by Stephen King. It has a mix of different genres, including fantasy, and a long, epic journey across a strange and dangerous land, much like the adventures in Final Fantasy.
You could try 'The Wheel of Time' series by Robert Jordan. It has a huge cast of characters, a complex magic system, and a world in the midst of a great struggle between good and evil. This is very much like the large - scale stories in Final Fantasy. 'The Kingkiller Chronicle' by Patrick Rothfuss also fits. It has a young and talented protagonist, a world full of magic and mystery, and a story that unfolds over time, similar to the engaging narratives in Final Fantasy.
There's 'The Chronicles of Narnia' by C.S. Lewis. It has a magical world that can be accessed through a wardrobe, and the characters go on adventures to fight against evil. The idea of a group of heroes on a quest in a magical place is similar to Final Fantasy. Also, 'The Elric of Melniboné' stories by Michael Moorcock. They feature a complex anti - hero, a world of dark magic, and a series of adventures that are in the vein of the more complex and darker aspects of Final Fantasy.
