Having said that, while this story is just another medieval magical fantasy, it also combines enough concepts to (at least in this reader's eyes) distinguish itself from all of the other ones that came before it. While I wouldn't call it original, I'd call it "unique", and being enough to stand out from other stories is enough for me.

It's in the way that so many characters are treated as a main character at the same time. I would also maybe agree with Song of Ice and Fire. There are good unique takes. I found the northern geography to be much more interesting than the usual expanse of snow and ice.
