Sorry to hear about your accident. I can appreciate the loss of mobility and independence when you have a broken bone (or worse in your case).
I'm really enjoying reading Guy Gavriel Kay. He often writes low or medium fantasy style (ie, there aren't elves and dragons and spells slung about, most of the time) but there IS magic in the world, albeit more rare. His writing quality is truly excellent and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his works to anyone. So far I have read Tigana, the Fionavar Tapestry (trilogy), the Saratine Mosaic (duology, in book two now).
Rest well.
