I like Legend, it's a good, heroic sword and sorcery story. I intend to read more of the books in The Drenai Saga.

The basic plot is that the Nadir empire is threatening to swallow up the Drenai kingdom. A lone castle stands in the way of the Nadir horde, can it stand up against the invaders and save the Drenai people? Coming out of retirement and to the defense of the castle is Druss, a legendary warrior.

The story takes a little bit to really get cooking and the end is a bit contrived but in between it is a real page-turner.
