Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan(currently 11 books but author died and 12th is being done by someone else) Awesome series but becomes quite political after the 5th book to a point where the story doesnt progress much each book because so many characters get involved! Quite the read though if you can keep up with it

Amazingly written (all details described to their entirety - highly suggest you dont skim read during them like i did my first time because you'll miss alot) You wont be able to put the first book down (if you've read the da vinci code you know what i mean

)
Sword of Truth by Terry Goodkind(11 books I think, all complete) My only beef with this series is that magic is not fully explained

Very mature series (I dont think any sex is described but all the events leading up to it is described like a romance novel! - foreplay

) Sometimes a bit repetitive but still epic. Wheel of Time was better imo but definetely worth the read if you find Wheel of Time too much
Both are fantasy genre and should last you until next year
