I'd be interested in your opinions on Dune! It's long and dry, but there's some excellent writing there too. It was the first novel I ever seriously analyzed properly--thanks to my 11th grade English Honors teacher who was the first teacher I had who actually showed us how to properly analyze a novel, and gave us a workable definition of "irony".
Also, I think you've read some of the Wheel of Time, right? Because I think the entire Aiel subplot in book 4, and the Aiel people as a whole, were blatant rip-offs from Dune.
