The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss, as much as it exists now. It frequently subverts standard heroic fantasy tropes, and is paced more like real life and less like a movie. In general, it's just exceptionally well-written.
Aside from that, I must admit I have a soft spot for the better Warhammer 40000 books--anything by Dan Abnett or Sandy Mitchell. They're no triumphs of literature, but they're suitably grim and dark and badass, and the Cain books have moments of genuine humor.
Aside from those, Interesting Times by Terry Pratchett and World War Z by Max Brooks come to mind.
