Alla:

Oh Oh The Lymmond Chronicles. I definitely second that recommendation. 
I personally find Dunnett's writing style a bit too wordy, but 
characters are wonderful.

And Lymmond is another Snape like character in a sense that I like :-)

Thanks Betsy who recommended these books to me originally.
