Feast of Souls
Book One of the Magister Trilogy
by C.S. Friedman

King's Dragon
by Kate Elliott
Crown of Stars #1
https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/king-s-dragon
"Set in an alternate Europe where bloody conflicts rage, the first book of the Crown of Stars epic fantasy series chronicles a world-shaking conflict for the survival of humanity"
I've read all of these in the print editions and can recommend them. My favourite is Tanya Huff - I like pretty well everything she's published. The Inda series is part of Smith's multiverse, and seems to be pitched at a slightly younger reader (older YA?), the Elliott is seriously complex - it helps if you know something of Dark Age European history especially in terms of the early Holy Roman Empire. Wikipedia should help here.
