Curse of the Mistwraith is $2.17 for me (link). My region is kinda undefined when it comes to Amazon, so I have no idea if it's also on sale in the US, UK, or anywhere else, but it was a nice find.
Either way, I grabbed that.
You need to edit this comment ASAP with a link to purchase :-)

I say give the sample a read on Amazon (even if you aren't planning to get it in Kindle format). The sample size isn't excessively long, but skimming through it just now, it is pretty typical of Janny's style in anything I've read of hers.
See if it interests you and go from there. :)
If you're okay with ornate prose, Janny Wurts's Wars of Light and Shadow epic fantasy series is exactly what you're looking for. Layered, complex story, huge (interplanetary!) scale, not excessively dark, with richly detailed and carefully thought out worldbuilding--I did a post here a while back where I talked in more detail about what I've enjoyed in the series, if that's helpful.
Nine books out of the planned 11 are currently available, 10th releasing very soon, and final novel in progress. First book is Curse of the Mistwraith.
