I don't know if you have heard of
www.sennadar.com but the Author, Fel, has written an eight book long saga, able to compete with the best ones out there.
Follow Tarrin Kael through a journey filled with danger, magic, and an incredible developement of events. But beware, it is addictive
A must read if you liked robert jordan - especially since the first books precede him!
cheers,
