i'm currently at the 2nd book in the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn series by Tad Williams and I have to say its the best fantasy I've read so far, i absolutely love it.

The series is 4 books long, all ~700 pages.

I'm not a hardcore fantasy reader, but I got this recommended by other fantasy lovers.

Oh man, can't believe I forgot to mention that one Cinn. Great series, up there with Sword of Truth. Although his other books aren't that good imo.

Though i read more sifi and i think most of the books below are sifi rather then fantasy i'm sure most will enjoy reading them.

I can recommend China Mieville.
He has a different aproach (Atleast imo) about how fantasy could be writen also.
Not the well known same old: Sword, dragon, search quest, power, in the end king kinda fantasy who most of the time have middle ages kinda settings. (Over exaturating abit ofcourse, but you know what i mean.)

Dan Simmons

Hyperion, must read classic and he made more great novels.
Forgot the title but he also made a book about brain vampires.
Who are able to control people by taking over the brain. Was an awesome horrorfantasy by him.
(Still remember it and it must be atleast 15ish years ago i read it, and most of the time i can't remember anything from 2 days ago so. :P)
