What are some of your favorite, must-read sci-fi and fantasy novels that transported you to other worlds? I want to get lost in a story and world.

Disclaimer: I'm a huge fan of multipart series. My current favourites are:

Fantasy: "The Realm of the Elderlings" by Robin Hobb

SF: "Manifold" Trilogy by Stephen Baxter

Both works are epic beyond measure, full of incredible ideas, and a joy to read (at least for me that is).
