I completely endorse the Wheel of Time recommendation - I've been reading (& re-reading it since '91) and love it.

Part of the reason people got bored I think is that it often years before a new book would appear, getting in on the series now would be great as you don't have to wait.

I also liked almost anything by Terry Brooks (Shannara series), Piers Anthony (Bio of a Space Tyrant series, lots of his Xanth novels), Robert Heinlein (Stranger in a Strange Land, Friday, The Cat Who Walks Thru Walls, Time Enough For Love, The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, Starship Troopers).

The Lord of the Rings was awesome too - didn't like them in my teens, love them as an adult.
