Modesitte...There's this website online called www.fictionpress.com that has thousands of original fantasy novels by starting authors. i've read some that deserve to be published...

Hi there. I have a new medieval fantasy book out that you might like. It has received excellent reviews in the national media and is being considered for a movie deal. The title is THE BLACKGLOOM BOUNTY. It's 445 pages of action, adventure, magic, mystery and mayhem. If you like Conan style books, you'll like this one. If you're looking for a Harry Potter type book, this is not for you.
If you'd like to try it out, I'll send you a FREE, 4 chapter eBook demo if you email me at FiveStarAuthor@aol.com. That way, you can see if you like the story or not without spending a dime. Cool huh?
Good luck, whatever you decide to read!

You should definitely check out C.S. Lewis' lesser known space trilogy: Out of the Siltent Planet, Peralandra, and That Hideous Strength. It's a great series that is unlike anything else I have ever read. Great imagery!
