Just started 'The Gravedigger's Almanac' by Oliver Potzch [translated by Lisa Reinhardt]
Serial killer in 1890's Vienna being tracked by a gravedigger/amateur scientist.
Also, if you like Seanan McGuire, try Tanith Lee. "Red As Blood" is a short story collection where the princesses are evil, and 'Night's Master' has an Arabian Nights style demon as the hero.
