if you like fantasy/lord of the rings-esque kind of stuff, id suggest the wheel of time series by robert jordan. i can honestly say its the greatest fantasy epic ive ever read, the different lore of the world sucks you in and never lets go, the regions have unique cultures, you feel as though you are thrust into the world of the story and when you put the book down, the real world feels pathetic in comparison. (warning though, its a 13 book series, and each book is nearly 1000 pages long)

Comics: watchmen, v for vendetta


Should keep you busy for a little while, ill add more later.
