Thanks for all the suggestions! I really appreciate it. A lot of these sound interesting, and I have been looking into them. Some co workers of mine have also talked The Stormlight Archives, and some friends have also hyped me up on Wizard of Earth Sea. So I will probably be giving one of those a wack soon. I knew my forumquest pals were the ones to help me in my quest.

I actually preferred to sequels to the Dragonlance books. That takes place after the grey gem thing and the mages are like no longer a thing. Sorta. When they face the chaos God. I can't remember.
Both trilogies r really good tho. | ||

Echoing everyone who's recommended Brandon Sanderson's The Stormlight Archive. Probably your best option for an ongoing fantasy series. I think Rothfuss (Name of the Wind, etc.,) is the best active fantasy writer, but he's painfully slow and Sanderson is an absolute machine. Theres new Cosmere content all the damn time. Dunno how that guy writes so much.
Regarding The Kingkiller Chronicle: Quote:
Other good series that I don't think were mentioned: - Chronicle of the Unhewn Throne by Brian Stavely - Gentlemen Bastards by Scott Lynch - Lightbringer by Brent Weeks Wheel of Time sucks. Sword of Truth sucks. The Drizzt books (at least the first few that I've read) were actually pretty good / a lot better than I expected them to be. | |||

Kings of the Wyld by Nicholas Eames.
Fantastic story of heroes that retired, and have to get the band back together one last time. Awesome mix of comedy and drama...you feel nostalgic for these characters that must've had an awesome history together. It has a sequel: Bloody Rose ~Caliwynd | ||

I really enjoyed the Wheel of Time. It is a great series if you like a ton of detail and side stories. It gives the series a lot of re-readability. It can get silly at times for some people with how Robert Jordan portrays the female characters, but I thought it was fun lol. I do agree with the opinion that the series drags a bit in the middle. Books 7, 8, and 9 are the low points. Not bad books by any means, but you can feel the difference between them and the first six. It is definitely worth powering through, however, as the rest of the books after 9 are great.
I enjoyed the first book of The Stormlight Archive when it came out, but I haven't gotten around to reading the rest of the series. I like Sanderson quite a bit, who also finished the Wheel of Time after Robert Jordan passed away. EDIT: Glad to see people mentioned the Horus Heresy series. Warhammer 40k is a great universe to get into. It is somewhat unique in how the power scales of the warring factions are so extreme that nothing really feels out of place, like many other series. It is a great space fantasy series, and a good way to start in the massive universe that is Warhammer 40k.
