Not sure is the list of authors from original post was chosen because of their parallels to The Goblin Emperor, or to Sarah Monette's/Katherine Anderson's style of writing in general, but I immediately thought of the Kushiel's Scion series, by Jacqueline Carey, when it comes to character depth and world building. Just my two cents though :)
