Additional ranbly information, mostly trends in what I dislike, that may color your feedback, but should not be construed to keep books of this kind off the recommended list. Also, I only have one comment, so I'll fill the space until more arrive.

I tend very strongly to veer toward fantasy over sci-fi, especially sci-fi that is caught up in it's "big idea"-ness.

I am tired of everything being about the fate of the world.

I don't usually care for time travel (at least serious time travel).

I don't like when people from our world who go into another one.

I like old school noir (Hammett over Chandler) and crime (Westlake/Stark).

I like classic romance/adventure (Dumas).

I like pulp sword and sorcery (Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, Conan, Jirel).

I like weird authors who are better than Lovecraft (mostly Clark Ashton Smith and Lord Dunsany.

Usually thing 1 I like with elements of thing 2 I like is ok, but straight on pastiches (it's a noir detective fantasyland story) are crap.

Steampunk is an awesome video game aesthetic, but I don't care for it anywhere else.

I like about half of the Lies of Locke Lamora and the Name of the Wind, but that wasn't enough to make me bother with the sequels.

I started off really liking Karl Schroeder's Virga series, but then didn't anymore as the heavy SF crept in.
