The Prince of Nothing Trilogy by R. Scott Bakker

A Holy War, an impending apocalypse, vicious political intrigue-all familiar themes, but this underrated gem combines the breathtaking heights of the best epic fantasy novels with a gritty, flawed humanity that marks Bakker as arguably the best fantasy writer since Erikson. The scope is tremendous and the quality of writing is the best I have ever come across-in any genre. I cannot recommend this series highly enough for lovers of great fantasy.
