Fred Saberhagen's Book of Swords triology is pretty good, especially the
second one which is mostly a dungeon-crawl. Good writing and neat magic
swords like Coinspinner (brings luck) Townsaver (wielder of this weapon
will fight on beyond death if the town he is defending is attacked), and so
on. When I was reading this I kept imagining how these swords could be
Uniques in Diablo. You might want to read a sort of prequel to this series
called Empire of the East from Saberhagen also.
