The usual. George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire is wonderful. While Kaiser's right in that the latest novel was a difficult read, the previous three are well worth it and I'm confident the series will pick up again.

And, you know. Robin Hobb, starting with Assassin's Apprentice. The size is modest, but the novels grow in size with each installment and they're great books.

But if you liked Stephen King, you certainly can't go wrong with The Dark Tower.

I'm trying to think of more massive books, but after GRRM's A Storm of Swords, everything else seems pretty dinky. I hear a lot of good things about Tad Williams. Though I've yet to read them, the size of his books are pretty intimidating.
