Strange Fortune by Josh Lanyon. I wanted this to be the first book in a trilogy or an ongoing series oh so very badly. It's set in an alternate reality!India where magic is real, the magical fallout from an earlier rebellion has basically rendered the British Isles uninhabitable, one of the main characters is the son and grandson of two of the fomenters of that rebellion -- basically alternate!Brits who felt that the alternate!Indians deserved independence and to be more than just a source of exploitable magical and mundane resources for the Empire -- and the other is an impoverished Imperial cavalry officer of North American extraction (specifically, from a New Orleans in a North America that never successfully broke away from colonial control). Very aware of the "magical brown person"/"white boy does native better than the natives do" tropes and averts/subverts them pretty much totally. Packs an astonishing quantity of entertaining alternate history into a relatively short page count, along with the smexings and the witty badinage.
