The Book of the New Sun - Gene Wolfe
News:
"Magic is what makes fantasy fantastic," someone says, "you can't apply rules to them or else it loses wonder!" I respond, "Sure, but if you want to write them you will certainly want to know how they work." Writing is all about execution, and I find applying some basic laws of physics to magic systems make them more understandable and realistic. Here, I'm going to outline my basic method for developing a magic system.

I'd say epic would be the way to go for your career.
Not a WOT sized epic though please. I gave up after book 5 as the story seemed to get stale and slowed down to a crawl (I did like Jordan's style thoguh). 4-6 books is a decent sized epic in my view (and I probably would have finished WOT if there were a couple more books to go not more than half a dozen more).
