[Suzerain of Sheol]

I recently packed away all the books I own that I don't like, and... I only have about 20 books left on my shelves, where there used to be a couple hundred.

Looking at those, we have:

Steven Erikson and his monstrous Malazan Book of the Fallen
Scott Bakker's Prince of Nothing and Aspect-Emperor trilogies
Stephen Donaldson's Thomas Covenant Chronicles
and Glen Cook's Black Company novels.

Oh, and I've recently started reading Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire, which I'm relatively enjoying (not quite to the degree I've seen some people devour his work) so those make the list, too.

On the other hand, I tried to start reading Follett's The Pillars of the Earth yesterday (loved the t.v. series on Starz) and that has to be one of the most poorly-written books I've ever read. I despair at that thought of slogging through 1,200 pages of that man's writing.
