How do you find "Malazan Book of the Fallen"? (now on sale, but probably available in a library near you) (www.humblebundle.com)

It's a very different style, but one thing I love to recommend is The Gentlemen Bastards by Scott Lynch, starting with The Lies of Locke Lamora. Simply fantastic fantasy.

If you're looking for something a bit more classic, there's The Chronicles of Amber by Roger Zelazny that I absolutely adore, as well as The Black Company by Glen Cook for that grimdark fantasy feel.
