I've heard very good things about Wheel of Time, I take it you'd recommend it?

Also, has anyone read Asimov's Foundation Trilogy? I hear it's superb, currently next on my reading list.

That story is, god's truth, simply my favourite. Nothing so far has surpassed this as far as it's conjugation and thought process goes. It's made me think and even stay up many nights. Enjoy.

I really recommend it, the Wheel of Time is a great series if you like fantasy.
I like series which have rather specific magical systems and a medieval setting.
The thing I didn't like in the beginning was how evil and good were shown, these guys are bad and these are good. But it developed to a more faded difference as good and evil became part of the way characters observed events later in the series.

Bernard Cornwell is a good one.  Personal favorite is his character Lord Uhtred of Bebbanburg in The Saxon Chronicles series of books.

That is one hell of a story, thank you sir.

Everyone here should read "All Quiet on the Western Front" by Erich Marie Remarque and "The Things they Carried" by Tim O'Brian.
