I also finished both the Kingkiller Chronicles and The Black Company not too long ago. I highly recommend both.

The Malazan world is fantastic.

Eriksen's world-creating partner, Ian Cameron Esselmont, is 2/3 of the way through a prequel trilogy that sets up the Book of the Fallen. Good stuff. iCE also has a bunch of supporting novels ongoing, but his first few are pretty fought.

I feel like the Book of the Fallen really picks up with Books 3 and 4. First two are a bit of a slog.

Every time I read a Malaz book, I wish I had been part of the tabletop RPg group that played in the world in the 80s and early 90s...
