Like Robert Jordan...."The Wheel of Time" by Robert Jordan is an excellent book. The series is complete now that Brandon Sanderson wrote the last three books from Jordan's notes (after his death). I left the last three books literally sit until the very last one was published. I then started the last three and was pleasantly surprised. That series bogged down at about book 6 or 7 and was only passably good until the last three.

I really disagree that it's for younger audiences (well... depending on what you consider "younger"). It may be a less intricate story that follows fewer characters and subplots, but a lot of the themes are very adult. In a lot of ways I think it is a superior series. I must have read faith of the fallen a dozen times.Another fun series is Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth, although if you've read Wheel of Time you'll notice that Goodkind seems to have stolen the framework concepts for Jordan's story and written his own story based off of it. I would describe it as Wheel of Time for a younger audience. It's not as intricate as Wheel of time.
This is terribly unoriginal but my favourite is still A Song of Fire and Ice series by George R.R. Martin.
Glory Road is great. I feel like you can't mention Heinlein without mentioning Starship Troopers. My favorite of his.I like Heinlein:
Glory Road
The Past Through Tomorrow (collection of stories in his Future History series)
Tunnel in the Sky
