I need something new to read. I want it to be epic, meaning it can be up to 4 books long if it is worth reading.
I just finished the first 4 books of the Fire and Ice Series (Crown of Swords, Feast of Crows, Game of Thrones) by George Martin and it was amazing. I didn't like any of the Tolkein books and the Wheel of Time series became far too hard to enjoy after about book 6 due to his writing style. I grew up on the Shannara books by Terry Brooks, so you can look at that and see what I am kind of looking for. The Recluce books by Modessitt were amazing as well and fit what I am looking for right now.
I don't want anything space based and I like things that are semi-realistic (like the George Martin books) with a little bit of magic thrown in. I liked some of the Discworld Terry Pratchett books, but I am not looking for anything particularly humorous.
Any suggestions?
