It depends. Ongoing? I would say The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica books are quite good. Of all time though? Lord of the rings. I know it is a common answer but the books are just so damn good and changed fantasy fiction forever.

Lord of the Rings, Sherlock Holmes, Darren Shan, Artemis Fowl, Codex Alera, Inheritance, pretty much everything else anyone has said...
It's like choosing between favourite children! I can't do it!

That is a toughie, I would have to split three ways between WoT, A Song of Fire and Ice, and Dragonlance.

Dune.

(That being the six books by Frank Herbert, not those written afterwards.)
Well said, good sir (or madam, as it may be). They afterwards read like fan fiction.

Mine would have to be Terry Pratchett's Discworld. Simon Green's Nightside would have to be a close second, just because of how interesting it is.

I like the Mortal Engines series by Phillip Reeve.
Though they're the only book series I've really read, other than Hitchhiker's guide, which is too obvious to suggest.
You Sir are awesome for having read both series.

For me apart for the aforementioned two, I also enjoy David Weber's Honor Harrington and Safehold series (Napoleonic Wars in SPACE!!!!!!!! and medieval stasis ending on a human colony respectively.

Wheel of time for me - and the series is also now completed. Something i never thought would ever happen.

The Farseer Trilogy and the Tawny Man trilogy by Robin Hobb. Some of the best character development I have ever read in a book series and still the only books that have ever made me cry (or book I should say, it was only one part).

By quantity and quality, Discworld.

Series? I still vote Artemis Fowl, it's a great series for all ages.
Vibrating shouldn't make you invisible. The time travel trick should've worked multiple times (in Time Paradox). Gah! *Bangs head against wall* Sorry. I kind of dislike that series.

the Night Watch series by Sergei Lukyanenko is pretty good, either that or the Sherlock Holmes books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

Gaunt's Ghost novels by Dan E. Abnett. Absolutely amazing 40k books, expertly written.
