Oh yeah, just in case I forget. Let me recommend A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin. Best fantasy series I've ever read.

I'm just about to finish "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius". I like David Eggers' writing a lot.

The Long Sun and Short Sun series that follow are also fantastic.
Be aware it's some of the most subtle and cryptic fiction I've read since Joyce. A real challenge, but well worth it IMO.
