Fantasy Reccomendations

Name: Birdie 2007-02-17 21:27

I fear I've been horribly, completely spoiled by George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Since A Dance With Dragons is still a long way off, I'd like some recommendations of *GOOD* fantasy series to read. I should specify that I'm looking for new, or perhaps lesser known writers, because I've read a good amount of what's considered 'popular' in fantasy like Wheel of Time and Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn.

I'm looking for something fresh, please don't bother with Ender's Game or Neil Gaiman's stuff, which I've read.

These are books that are as good as ASOIAF:
The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch (Reccommended by George himself)
The Prince of Nothing (start with The Darkness That Comes Before)trilogy by R. Scott Bakker

You also might as well read GRRM's earlier work. His best is Fevre Dream, then Dying of the Light.

Terry Pratchett's discworld novels are great too, but nothing like ASOIAF.
