I've read almost all (haven't read A Brightness Long Ago yet) of his books in publication order, for the most part he's IMO surprisingly consistent in quality. The Last Light of the Sun, Ysabel and Children of Earth and Sky were a few letdowns for me, besides that I've enjoyed him thoroughly. If you are interested here's a general outline of his bibliography (of his books I liked):

>The Fionavar Tapestry, a portal fantasy in which five travel from our Earth to "the first of all worlds"
>Tigana, taking place in a setting based on renaissance Italy
>A Song for Arbonne, inspired by the Albigensian Crusade in medieval Provence
>The Lions of Al-Rassan, set in an analogue of medieval Spain
>The Sarantine Mosaic, inspired by the Byzantium of Justinian I
>Under Heaven, inspired by the 8th century Tang Dynasty and the events leading up to the An Shi Rebellion
>River of Stars, taking place in the same setting as Under Heaven, based on the 12th century Song Dynasty and the events around the Jin-Song Wars and the transition from Northern Song to Southern Song
