Well, this is kinda different from the selection you have there:

Mervyn Peake - the Gormenghast trilogy.
Certain books by Iain Banks, such as Walking on Glass and The Bridge.

A little more mainstream:

Hannes Bok - The Sorcerer's Ship and Beyond the Golden Stair
Robert Holdstock - Mythago Wood and Lavondyss
Christopher Stasheff - King Kobold

Stafshee's "Her Majesty's Wizard" - Catholic-leaning Humanist drops into magic world, discovers his rhyming skills make him a powerful wizard, gradually comes to discover "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility." And anything in his "Wizard in Spite of Himeslf" series (King Kobald included!)

Read Heinlein's "Farnam's Freehold" and that "Japs invade America" book, something about "Mota."
