additionally you may want to have a look at Robin Hobb's newer series - farseer trilogy, (Golden fool - this is one book in the trilogy, can't remember the title of the trilogy). i found the liveship traders trilogy a bit dull.
I tend to find David Eddings and David Gemmel excellent writers. The style of writing is different to the DragonLance & Forgotten Realm series and I feel that they paint a better story than the Dragonlance/Forgotten Realm books.
