Ah, this one's still my favorite fantasy shôjo manga. Even though I generally like epicness and adventure born from a plot full of conflict, Akagami no Shirayuki-hime focuses on peace-time and does it so beautifully and gently that it feels magical despite the lack of mages. : )
I wouldn't recommend this story to people who want high tension at every turn or dramatic love scenes. I would, however, recommend it to those who want something more subtle, refreshing and slow. Akagami feels almost believable instead of fantastic, a story of how an assortment of people support each other through the hardships brought on by their roles and decisions. I'll be buying this once it finally becomes available in English in Europe.
