The Malazan Empire 'saga' by Stephen Erikson.
Hands down the best Fantasy (my main genre) I've ever read. Kind of combines all the things I like about a bunch of other authors into a read that, while challenging (complex sentance structures, massive scope, massive character list), rewards with that "can't put it down" feeling (that contributed to the delay on this new board by a couple ofweeks!) that will have you DESPARATE for the next book.
There will be around 10 books in all with the first five already published -- each at around the 1000 page mark -- and I thoroughly recommend checking the series out.
