I say that there is nothing wrong with long books, it is just a personal choice. Even now, if I am to choose between two fantasy debuts I know nothing about, I would go for the longer one.

Me too. Given a choice between a good short novel and a good long one, I'll always go for the long one. Some of my very favourite novels are the really long ones: "The Lord of the Rings", "The Count of Monte Cristo", etc.
