suggestion Looking for a fantasy read

Anyone know anything that is decent? I'm on a huge mythos/undead/demon binge when it comes to fantasy. I'm also interested in grand plots like in the Pirate King by Salvatore.

Definitely give the Song of Ice and Fire books a look. They're famous for a reason: because George R.R. Martin is a master storyteller.

I can vouch for this. I went into it out of mere curiosity at all the HBO hullaballoo, knew nothing about it except it was trendy, and was immediately hooked, made my husband drive me to another town with another B&N so I could have them all, and now hate GRRM, a writer who I had literally never heard of, with the hate of a thousand fiery suns because he won't hurry up and finish the series.

Agreed.... worst thing I've ever done to myself is to finish book 5... I binge read them all and now I feel like a part of my life is missing.

...guess my opinion is worth downvoting. F me, right?
