These are only the ones I can remember off the top of my head. I can add more when I get to my library at home. :P
Simon R. Green The Nightside Series This series is about The Nightside, a dark city within London where magic and horror are quite real. If you're a fan at all of Jim Butcher you'll absolutely love The Nightside books.
1)
Something from the Nightside 2)
Agents of Light and Darkness 3)
Nightingale's Lament 4)
Hex and the City 5)
Paths Not Taken 6)
Sharper than a Serpent's Tooth 7)
Hell to Pay Lynn Flewelling The Nightrunner Series and
The Tamir Trilogy A series set in a Fantasy kingdom about a pair of 'nightrunners', aka thieves. Very well written, some homosexual love, but more along the lines of ancient Europe and the 'love who thall will' sort of thing. And nothing graphic at all. I include Tamir Trilogy in this because its in the same world but several hundred years before The Nightrunner Series.
1)
Luck In The Shadows (NR)
2)
Stalking Darkness (NR)
3)
Traitor's Moon (NR)
1)
The Bone Doll's Twin (TT)
2)
Hidden Warrior (TT)
3)
Oracle's Queen (TT)
And this last author I cannot believe I haven't seen on here! I might have actually and just don't remember. Either way:
David Gemmell This man is one of the greatest fantasy and historical fiction authors I have ever had the pleasure of reading. He has several fantasy series out as well as historical fiction. Starting with fantasy:
Drenai Series*
1)

The King Beyond the Gate 3)
Waylander 4)
Quest for Lost Heroes 5)
Waylander II: In the Realm of the Wolf 6)
The First Chronicles of Druss the Legend 7)
The Legend of Deathwalker 8)
Winter Warriors 9)
Hero in the Shadows 10)
White Wolf 11)
The Swords of Night and Day *These are by order of publication, NOT the chronological order of the series proper. That differs vastly. Rigante Series 1)
Sword in the Storm 2)
Midnight Falcon 3)
Ravenheart 4)
Stormrider Alas, David Gemmell was lost to us - and a great loss it was - on Friday Juy 28th 2006. He does, however, have many more books I did not list. If you're interested here is
his Wikipedia entry with all of his works written out.
On a final note, Robert Jordan is apparently beating back amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy so we might actually one day see the end of the Wheel Of Time. Granted most of us will have forgotten the beginning by that point.
