Oh god only 1 of 10 released... I think I'd want something that's either finished, or 99% finished.

I am growing old waiting for GRRM to finish his series.

Malazan.

At the very least read the first two books. And Deadhouse Gates (the second) might actually be worth reading standalone for the Chain of Dogs subplot.

No. That would be "Yargo"
