Can anyone out there recommend a really good fantasy book...one that ISN'T a saga, a chronicles, a part 1 of 10 etc.

Just a single book with no spin offs?

When I'm finished my current book (Feast for Crows) I'll need to read something else, but I can't hack buying any more epics!


I just finished reading Guy Gavriel Kay's Last Light of the Sun .
I *love* Kay's work...very contemporary fantasy...magic and myth and the most likeable and messed-up characters.....and stories that have shades of grey...not just black&white....
The only "series" Kay wrote was The Fionavar Tapestries and that was only three books. All the rest — Tigana, The Lions of Al Rassan and others were single books.
Other than that, the last book I read was a dragon boat coaching manual...LOL
