Modern Books Written In An Old Style (10 books)

This can apply to historical fiction or fantasy, even historical romance, as long as the style of writing is close to the style of another time period (Medieval, Victorian, etc) and it's been published outside of the time period it's set (Dickens does not belong here). Make sure that if voting for a book, that writing style is correct, so please don't vote for a book just because it's set in x time period.
