Is there any good fantasy literature out there? Please don't mention A Song of Ice and Fire or Wheel of Time.

>Anything similar?
nothing of the same caliber bar the actually historical sources it's based on:
The Kalevala
The Ulster Cycle
The Mabinogion
The Niblungenlied
The Poetic Edda
The Prose Edda
Heimskringla

Tolkien would have studied all of these works.
