Fair warning - it takes awhile for the Plot to get started. The first 40% of the book is world building. It is (mostly) interesting world building but you may (like me the first time I read it) start wondering when things will really get moving. But once the Plot starts it is hard to put down.
I would recommend these books to anyone who enjoys epic fantasy (especially those set in what is clearly our world, with just a few tweak). Phedre is an amazing heroine and Jacqueline Carey is an auto-read for me.
