The Death Gate Cycle series by Tracy Hickman and Margaret Weis.


+1 Dare I say this, I like them better than the DragonLance books.



Mighty compelling.  Their Dragonlance stuff was what got me into reading the Fantasy genre back in middle school. I won one of their books at a bingo tournament held at my local library. :)

Don't get me wrong; I love the Dragonlance world. However, I think they weaved a WAY better story with Death Cycle.  Where as Dragonlace was straight up Tolkien like lore and quest. Which I may add, that's where The Wheel of Time seems to go at first, until it literally bitch slaps you into amazement. Battle scenes in those series are amazing!

+1 on the Dark Elf series as well.  I'd suggest the Icewind Dale trilogy, before reading the Dark Elf Trilogy.

Damn, I read the Icewind Dale trilogy back when. I completely forgot about that—fun stuff.

I second the Martian Chronicles.  Awesome read.

And the Icewind Dale trilogy.  Drizzt is a badass! :P
