Another vote for Pratchett (all) and Pullman's Dark Materials.
Quite enjoyed Trudi Canavan's Black Magician Trilogy, and the first two books of Justina Robson's Quantum Gravity are enjoyable but not too demanding (her 'Living Next Door to the Good of Love was much harder SF).
Quite liked Anne McCaffrey's Crystal Singer books, although it was AGES ago that I read them.
