Well, everybody and their mothers is recommending N.K. Jemisin's The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms which just came out. I'm still kinda feeling left out because I can't read it (yes, I'm jealous of people who can!), but I'm pretty sure that you should if you can, and if you like high fantasy.

Via Willow: first three chapters here in N.K.'s blog.

ETA: I have read the three chapters and then the Amazon's reviews and I think I spoiled myself, but Oh God. I want this book. I will get it for sure.
