Another vote for A Song of Ice and Fire from me. I'll add that the TV series, Game of Thrones, is starting this April 17th on HBO -- the first season will cover the first book, or so I understand.
I can understand if anyone is hesitant to get into the series -- the series becomes somewhat complicated, is as yet unfinished, and Martin has been working on the latest book for a very long time. The reason for the delays are many, including him working on other projects often (like Wild Cards).
But the books are great. Martin doesn't shy away from much, and actions have more realistic consequences than most other books I've read.
