[Deborah Gitlitz]

Some possibilities:

The Thief (first in The Queen's Thief series by Megan Whalen Turner)
The Ring of Solomon (Stroud; Bartimaeus # 0.5)
Dreamhunter and Dreamquake (Elizabeth Knox)
Fly By Night (Hardinge)
The Dark Lord of Derkholm (Diana Wynne Jones)
Has probably already The Hungry City Chronicles (Reeve)
Thirteenth Child (Wrede)
Airborn (Oppel)
The Blue Sword (McKinley)
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court :) (Twain)
