Steven Erikson recommends

Night of Knives (2004)
(Malazan Empire, book 1)
Ian C Esslemont
"Night of Knives marks the first installment of the shared world that we had both envisioned."

The Warrior-Prophet (2004)
(Prince of Nothing, book 2)
R Scott Bakker
"The Prince of Nothing series inspires both confidence and anticipation - this is fantasy with muscles and brains."

Black Company / Shadows Linger / White Rose (2008)
(Black Company Omnibus)
Glen Cook
"With the Black Company series, Glen Cook single-handedly changed the face of fantasy - something a lot of people didn't notice, and maybe still don't. He brought the story down to a human level, dispensing with the cliche archetypes of princes, kings and evil sorcerers. Reading his stuff is like reading Vietnam fiction on Peyote."
