1. Malazan Book of the Fallen - This read is a true epic but it throws you into the deep end and never really lets up. Silmarillion type confusion for the unwary reader. My second read through was undoubtedly my best experience in reading Fantasy.
Erikson pulls of some very unique content very well. Having characters hundreds of thousands of years old? They better be some kind of crazy and all are in their own right. The Imass are written so well. The warrens, houses, and holds are a very unique take on magic.
Id recommend the Shannara series to almost anyone looking to get into fantasy. They are quick, easy books. Nothing flashy. Just a bunch of fun.

"He walks through the forest." - Shannara
