Some other good authors to read are J.V. Jones and Steven Erikson. Ms. Jones Sword of Shadows series has some great cultural stuff, especially on the importance of belonging to a society. Her clans remind me a lot of Orlanthi society.

Steven Erikson's (from Winnipeg, hurray) Malazan Book of the Fallen is kind of along the same lines as Glen Cook's Black Company books but the scale is even more epic and the magic system is just about one of the most intersting ones out there.

Unfortunately they're both coming through English publishers so may be hard to find in the U.S.
