Summary: 

I also highly recommend the series of books by Stephen Donaldson.  He manages
to create a very real world, quite different from our own.  The character
development is thorough and the story line draws the reader into the book
in an all-consuming way.

The story revolves around Thomas Covenant, a leper who finds himself in
a world where magic exists.  What is unique about this book is that the
main character finds it as difficult to believe that it is happening
to him as I would myself.  The book has much to say about belief systems
and the human emotional situation.
