Several came back for a few weeks after The End, early this year. They have,
I think, scattered to the six corners of the Web again.

Well, if you could get all the way through Wheel of Time, and are enjoying
Game of Thrones, I'll point you to Erikson's Malazan Books of the Fallen -
it's an oddity in that you can start with either book 1, Gardens of the Moon
(which doesn't really explain parts of the magic/Warrens system that well), or
book 2, Deadhouse Gates. Ten-book series, completely finished, has some
companion books by his friend Esslemont. You are _guaranteed_ to miss some of
what-all is going on until at least your first read through... It's epic
fantasy that wonders "What would epic fantasy be like in a world that really
DID have Elder Races hanging about?".
Dave, you could also ask over on rec.arts.sf.written
