Thomas Covenant series by Stephen Donaldson.
He is now writing a third a final series about Covenant; the one already published is The Runes of Earth. Grim but good.
Did you try the Gap series? Brilliant stuff.
My favourite was the two book series, The Mirror of Her Dreams.

"The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Unbeliever" by Stephen R Donaldson
http://theland.antgear.com/overview.html
"Thomas Covenant, a nondescript man whose wife and son have fled after he is diagnosed with leprosy, is mystically and unwillingly transported to the Land in a time of crisis when Lord Foul's plans approach their time of fruition. He wears a wedding ring of white gold -- metal found nowhere else in the Land -- that proves to be a talisman of indescribably powerful sorcery, making him a wild card in the war against the Despiser. His lack of control of the white gold and his bottomless well of self-loathing, confusion, cynicism and rage imperil his friends as surely as the worst travails Lord Foul unleashes at them."

Vivienne T below: I wasn't keen on the above, but I really enjoyed the two books of "Mordant's Need" too!
