Read "Grendel" by John Gardner. It's the telling of the Beowulf story, except from the perspective of the "monster" who's actually a highly-intelligent but misunderstood creature...like me. :(
Seriously, though, it's beautifully written, and I usually don't read fiction. It's literature and storytelling at their best - and it's even educational: besides for the history value, "Beowulf" is a seminal text since it's consider to be the first piece of English lit; "Grendel" puts that story in a new light.
Oh, and it has won all kinds of awards - see link below.

I'm partial to "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire. It's got everything. Political coups, green-skinned people, magic, tyrants...it's good stuff.
