Joel Shepherd's Sasha.

I know, I know the cover and the blurb don't look appealing but the actual book is nothing like them.
I know Renegade by Joel Shepherd is highly regarded by some people here and you can expect about the same quality of writing from Sasha. It's a book that is deeply political and often times very philosophical set in a rich world. I strongly recommend reading it, even more so if you're looking for good female protagonists.

The Rook and Liveship Traders are also favorites of mine.

Robin Hobb, Garth Nix, Ursula K LeGuin, Lois McMaster Bujold and Terry Pratchett all do femanon characters well. Worth checking them all out.
