Don't worry about it. There are really only something like eight plots anyway. Every book, movie, video game, etc. has similarities to others. It doesn't matter so long as your books have striking characters. It's all about the characters right?

In my mind, the solution to that problem lies in World-building. Terry Brooks got away with it quite well when he made a total ripoff of Lord of the Rings plotwise, but because the Four Lands of the Shannara series were so well-developed as something distinct from Middle Earth despite being a straight fantasy setting, and that can be a solution for the future.
