re: SECrOTB Book Club: I need a good book to read

I've been slightly disappointed with ASOIAF. At least relative to the "best ever" tag line people are want to give it. Great series, certainly top 10, but I don't know about hands down best ever.

Have you read the malazan books?

Also I see you started wheel of time and it is my absolute favorite series. Everything people say about it is true, but the world and everything created isn't rivaled by anyhing I have found. It's definitely the classical side, but with the strong points of WOT, that allows you to focus more on the writing IMO.

Books 3-7 or so (I haven't read the series in a few years) are my favorite stretch of anything in the genre I think.

Also I would recommend name of the wind by rothfuss. I read it recently and very good, two books out in the series thus far but I've only read the first
