Guy Gavriel Kay has only done one trilogy. But it's a GREAT trilogy. This
can best be described as high fantasy. What distinguishes this is not the
fine prose, or interesting characters (since several series have these),
but rather a genuine sense of tragedy. Many books talk about fated
characters, but these demonstrate them. It's also joyous and shows the
importance of choice. The thrid book STILL isn't out in paperback (some
legal difficulties), but is worth getting in hardcover.
