Gael Baudino's Strands of Starlight. (TW: this is a rape survivor's revenge fantasy.) Bother, just remembered the setting is a fictional country within Western Europe. I'd had it filed in my head as standard cod-medieval fantasyland, but there are references to actual historical figures, so I think that disqualifies it.
Patricia Kenneally-Morrison's Keltiad has space travel but also magic, so uh, ??? on the category front. But it's splendid, anyway.
Sharon Shinn's Samaria books look like fantasy but are SF; I think everything else she wrote before 2007 qualifies, though.
Sherwood Smith's Crown Duel and Wren books.
A whole bunch of Mercedes Lackey's books, both Valdemar and other—too many to list.
