The Farseer and Ship series's serieses(is there a decently pronouncable plural for series?)bleh trilogys by Robin Hobb are interesting because while through most of them humans are prominent, dragons are retaking their places as lords and masters and humans are all like "but why should we be inferior?" I think the dragons are basically like "because you are." And someone else points out that why should humans be superior anyways and that humanity should learn some humility. Its not the focus of the book but it is a point i hadn't really thought of before I read it. And the people kind of sitting there sputtering going eh? was funny.

Also in S.L. Viehl's Stardoc series, the main character is human, but most of the other characters are aliens of some sort and the humans mainly come off looking stupid and bigoted and small with very few exceptions.
