I have 60 pages left of The Wheel of Time series, and what a ride it's been. Just incredible!

Already looking for a series to fill the massive impending void. Was thinking of maybe Mazalan or Law Trilogy. Any advice or other suggestions, anyone?

Oh man, what a ride indeed. That series really is epic! And just in time for Season 2 of WoT to drop on Amazon!

If you liked that series, and in particular the last 2-3 books, then I'd recommend working your way through Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere, and the Stormlight Archive series in particular. Not classic sci-fi (although I'd argue it still fits on some levels), but an excellent fit after reading Robert Jordan.

I'd say go with the Stormlight Archive or the Mistborn series next. Both are long enough to fill that void.
