Voyage of the Jerle Shannara Trilogy ( I know the second one is called Antrax and think the first is titled the Voyage of the Jerle Shannara)
High Druid of Shannara Trilogy (Jarka Ruus, Tanequil and the third title escapes me)
Armageddon's Children Trilogy (Armageddon's Children, Elves of Eintra and the final book is still being written I believe)
Running with the Demon Trilogy (Running with the Demon, Knight of the Word and Angel Fire East)

I've read all of those (well, except Elves of Eintra, the unwritten book and book 2 and 3 of the running with the demon trilogy, I own them, I just haven't read them yet...) and can guarantee some good fun reading in them, and I COULD dig through my piles of books to find them and the titles but i'm lazy though I may read them all again, they're decently sized, each one at about... 500-600 pages I think.

He also wrote a series called; Magic Kingdom for Sale-SOLD!, which is apparently quite good but I never got around to buying or reading them.

Hehe, I actually read The Sword of Shannara, and Elf Stones of Shannara when I was 13 or 14, and I had a copy of The Voyage of the Jerle Shannara, I started it but just couldn't get into it. Sword of Shannara was pretty good and actually I wouldn't mind reading that again, I don't remember it too well, but I remember not enjoying Elfstones at all.
