I really enjoyed The Bear and the Nightingale! Any fantasy set somewhere that's not Western Europe is my jam and, while I'm no expert, I felt like the Russian setting was used well. I got pretty absorbed into it, anyway!
Also, ahh you said this to someone else, but I also wish more non-Western European writing would be translated into English. It's frustrating and saddening, the wonderful stories that are out there but not being more widely read because they're not translated, or, if they are, they're really difficult to get access to.
