Well the two things I can think of right now are Werber's Fourmi series. It's about the adventures of an ant in her colony and in parallel the adventures of people involved in the study of ants (? I read this years ago, my memory is a bit hazy). It has exciting chases, secret underground labs and mysterious old books.
Another one would be Le Juif Errant by d'Ormesson. It's historical fiction, basically taking the legend of the Wandering Jew and following that character through history. Quite good.

Looking for modern French fantasy. Fantasy that's written in French, that is. Francophone Fantasy.

Only her SF has been translated into English so far.

It has to be rather annoying when that happens, translations ending halfway.

Or, you could read it and tell me what happens.

As Dom argues in Larry's link, there isn't really that much.

While you're reading 19th century (semi-)spec-fic books...

I read Leroux in English a while ago, so that's out. But yeah, Alix is good.
