Hmm...don't know if you've managed to read anything by Guy Gavriel Kay yet, but he's absolutely amazing. One of my favourites, by far. A Song for Arbonne and Tigana are my favourites so far.
Also, Judith Merkle Riley isn't so much fantasy/scifi as historical fiction with a nice supernatural twist, but she's just wonderful. The Oracle Glass especially seems very much up your alley, if you've not read it.
And lastly, George R.R. Martin. Trust me on this one. The man is utterly brilliant *and* Book Four is finally coming out this year!
