I would highly recommend C. J. Cherryh's Fortress series as it covers all 5 of your criteria (though I'm not sure how to score atmosphere) and is a personal favorite besides. The priesthood is an important antagonist as they feel the existence and prominence of the MC is a threat to their orthodoxy and therefore power base. Rural priests are far less orthodox, due to the region having a strong tradition of heresy. The MC is a magical construct (human in substance) with only a few months life experience before being thrust into the royal court. He prefers (to the amusement/consternation of others) a mundane life, but sometimes rises to the occasion with instinct and magical power.

Cherryh is the best. She's also got some fantasy series if you'd prefer (Fortress series and Russian stories are pretty good).
