I've gotta concur; this series is the best of its genre, probably beating even Tolkien for greatness. This is by far the most politically intricate fantasy series I've ever encountered, and the characters of all ages are well written, with a ruthless psychological realism you don't find in many other authors. There's also none of that horse**** with all the main characters surviving until the final book in this series; main characters are killed off early and continue being killed off throughout the series.
