Also, The Riyria Revelations by Michael J. Sullivan is a great epic fantasy/action-adventure series. Mind you I started with the second book because it was free on my Nook (I was told each book can stand alone, that's why I didn't start with the first), but I immediately went to get the first in the series. I will be buying the rest as well. If you order via the authors site the books are only $3.99 each.

You should try Brandon Sanderson. I've only read "Elantris," which I loved, but his series are supposed to be phenomenal. He took over the Wheel of Time series after Robert Jordan died (I passed on those, heard a lot of complaints about the series degrading towards to end).
