Some of my all time favorite books (I tend to like fairytale-ish fantasy, but enjoy edgier high fantasy too):

Lud In The MIst - By Hope Mirrlees (if you haven't ready it and like stardust, I really recommend it!)
Stardust by Neil Gaiman
The King of Elfland's Daughter by Lord Dunsany
World Beyond the Wood by William Morris
A Song of Ice and Fire series (of course, amazing)
The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle
Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynn Jones
Book of Atrix Wolfe by Patricia McKillip
The Farseer Trilogy by Robin Hobb
Twilight of Avalan by Anna Elliott

To name a few. All really great in my opinion.

Any suggestions?

The Farseer trilogy is great, but the story of Fitz doesn't end there You have The Tawny Man trilogy and now recently finished with The Fitz and the Fool Trilogy which are both worth reading.

You can try the D-list Super villain series by Jim Bernheimer if you prefer a crossover with sci-fi too. If you prefer it in audio style, the guy who reads it has a perfect voice for the books.

Or you can try most of Brandon Sanderson books too.

It's easier to start a war than to end one.

Perfect blend of fantasy and history. Peter Jackson planned an adaptation for years but that fell through.

The Broken Sword by Poul Anderson, the original version. It is a dark, mature, brilliant novel.

Try Night's Master by Tanith Lee - it's like the Arabian Nights except set in a world and mythology of Lee's own creation. If you like fairy tale-esque fantasy you'll probably love it.

You'd probably also enjoy some of Angela Carter's short stories too, very modern day fairy tales.

This may/may not be considered a fantasy novel. But, it is good and worth a read.
