If so then you might add Tanya Huff's The Fires's Stone. Chandra and Darvish (2 of the 3 protagonists) and the countries where the action is set are all distinctly "non-European" and I'd say South-Asian influenced, but definitely secondary world created cultures rather than an actual country or region in disguise. The most prominant feature of the world building is the magic system / religion and I can't spot any real world belief system behind it, although there may be something I'm not aware of.
