So I'm here to ask your guys, can you give some recommendation based on my preference?
My all time favorite are Earthsea series. I also like American Gods, Tad Williams. I read the first 4 volumes of TOR then read the plot of rest on wiki... I don't like too much A Song of Ice and Fire too...

Thanks!
Try Mistborn, by Brandon Sanderson.

Or if you want a standalone fantasy novel, try Elantris, by the same author.
