Steven Erikson - Malazan series (10 books of awesomeness)
Ian C Esslemont - Malazan Empire Series (same world as Erikson's - they developed the world/ideas together)
Guy Gavriel Kay - Fionavar Tapestry trilogy
James Barclay - 2 Raven trilogies, the Ascendants books and currently his new Elves trilogy
Scott Lynch - Locke Lamora books (The Gentlemen Bastards)
Patrick Rothfuss - Name of The Wind (Kingkiller Chronicles)
Peter Brett - Painted Man trilogy
Brandon Sanderson - The Way of Kings

Loved the Patrick  Rothfuss novel.  Not read the second one yet but it is supposed to be very good too.

Finished book 1 and on to number 2. Enjoyable read and with a twist on the usual magic power story

Sword of shadows series by J.V Jones is quite good.  Gritty in comparison to something like the Belgariad.  Most of the others I have enjoyed have already been mentioned

The dark tower was great but on the whole I would say the story deteriorated as it went on, the last really good book being the wizard and glass.

The most important advice I would is at the end of the story when Mr King gives you the option to see what was inside the dark tower in an "extra".chapter don't look I wish I hadn't

Dragons of Autumn Twilight, although this is a bit of a rubbish reading (a bit...robotic for my taste, read the book instead), and I normally skip the songs like I did in LotR. Good old classic DnD adventure.

Absolute Awesome books. I can also reccomend Robin Hobb and the Fools Fate and Liveship trader books.
