I don't know if you like heroic fantasy, but if you do I'd recommend Charles Saunders' series set in an alternate Africa. And I second the recommendation for Steven Barnes' SF.

I'd also recommend Laura Joh Rowland's mysteries, set in feudal Japan. (Which reminds me I should mention Barnes and Rowland on the book rec tag on my LJ.)

Oh, also Nalo Hopkinson, if you haven't read her before.
