The Amulet of Samarkand was a Kindle daily deal quite recently (for $1.99, I think).
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell has been on sale (for $2.99, I think) at least twice in the last couple of years.
I bought American Gods from Amazon for $1.99 last year.
I bought Joe Abercrombie's entire First Law trilogy from Kobo in September for $4.99 (with a 50% off coupon, IIRC).
Fantasy, including modern fantasy, does go on sale often enough - but they do tend to be very short sales. If you have a long list of "want to have" books, having them on ereaderiq or Kindle Nation Daily or another price-check site that will let you know when the price comes down, it's possible to catch them, though.
