Wow, what a surprise, nearly all the authors mentioned in this thread have a place on my bookshelf. Guess gamers might think a little alike...
A few not mentioned:
Glen Cook: His fantasy novels are full of well thought out uses of magic. He also has a great fantasy detective series, Garret PI. It includes alot of humor, as well as both fantasy elements and more standard mystery fare.
David Gemmel: He writes mainly Heroic Fantasy, and his style is superb. He is skillful in drawing you into the world of the heroes, as if you were there among these 'larger than life' people.
