I've read loads of Fantasy and Sci-fi over the years, but my writing never gets past the outline stage.

Fantasy

Robert Jorden - The Wheel of time (waiting for the last book)
JRR Tolkin The Lord of the Rings (+ other stories)
David Eddings (and wife) - pretty much everything
Elizabeth Haydon - The Symphony of Ages(parts 1 and 2)
Frank Herbert -Dune series
C.S. Lewis - Narnia (my favourite when I was young)
Terry Brooks - Shannara series, The magic kingdom of Landover
Robin Hobb - The Farseer Trilogy, The Liveship Traders Trilogy, (and much more)
Anne McCaffrey - (many)
JK rowling - Harry potter series
George RR Martin - Song of Ice & Fire
Tad Williams - Other world (a great & unique series)
Tracy Hickman & Margaret Weis - Dragonlance series

I'm planning to read some of the authors you guys have mentioned.

I read far more Sci-fi both hard and.... casual(??)

 Shannara series is really solid, Dragonlance is a classical one! One of my friends has EVERY DL book! Over 300 now I'm sure... I've read 4-5 of the series in Dragonlance myself, mostly about the original companions; Tanis and co.
