I've had some time off and red some 'classics' lately.

Magician:Apprentice and Master by Raymond E Feist - not as great as I remember, but still not bad.
I also just finished Memory, Sorrow and Thorn by Tad Williams

Both good tolken-esque if you are into that sort of thing.

I'm two books into Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn! I got really interested once I found out it had inspired A Song of Ice and Fire. I'm going to be reading The Men Who Stare at Goats today, non-fiction about the CIA's project Stargate, and then start To Green Angel Tower. I've enjoyed the series so far, but it does have some dry/slow moments that lose my engagement a bit. Overall I do like it, and it's cool noting some of the similarities and obvious influences it's had on other fantasy series. I'm probably going to break up the last book and read something between once I get halfway through since it's so long (I think it's like the same length as the first two books combined).
