Guy Gavriel Kay has only done one trilogy.  But it's a GREAT trilogy. 
This can best be described as high fantasy.  What distinguishes this is
not the fine prose, or interesting characters (since several series have
these), but rather a genuine sense of tragedy.  Many books talk about
fated characters, but these demonstrate them.  It's also joyous and shows
the importance of choice.  The third book STILL isn't out in paperback
(some legal difficulties), but is worth getting in hardcover.
