I'll throw out a few of my favorites, given in the fantasy you've listed, you have the Wheel of Time :)

Roger Zelazny's - Nine Princes of Amber Series. (shorter books)

David Farland: The Runelords Series. (wins my most original idea award)

David Eddings - The Belgarion Series (and the sequels). ('Cause they are classic fantasy).

Just finished "Storm Front" in the Dresden Series, by Jim Butcher - good read!

"We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us." Joseph Campbell...So, If fear was not a factor - what would you do?

Currently reading:

Book 2 Song of Ice and Fire books.

Wish I had read more, but my reading time has dropped a lot and those books are quite huge.

Frigidfire86, thank you for this topic and thank you for choosing some books of my list... it feels so good to know I recommended books that you enjoyed, it's like traveling through the same experience and emotions that a book can give you.

Hope this summer I can finish your list, still about 10 books left to read though!

osca, you're very welcome for the list. It's not a list of all the books I've read, just the ones I reread all the time. I've recently been obsessively rereading "The First Confessor" by Terry Goodkind. Ah-ma-zing!!! I still have tons left to read from this thread. It should keep me occupied until this deployments ends.

I second Justin Cronin's The Passage. Could not put it down. Currently reading In the Garden of Beasts about Nazi Germany. Eye opening historical account of Hitler's rise.

Yeah. The passage is good, but no word on the sequel is there??

And started the garden of beasts. But pretty heavy stuff and can't get into it well.

Will go Back to

Time. My reread list is quite similar. But on one is always Potter. A world to drown in
