I've just finished plowing through some of Vidal's work and I found Burr and Julian to be fantastic historical fiction.
Also, I'm known to recommend Mary Renault's Alexander trilogy, particularly The Persian Boy. They're so beautiful and well-written that I feel as if a part of me died in that time period when I finished reading those books.

The Legionary series is really good ancient Roman military fiction

Both of those series are really great, but not as good as Masters of Rome.

Any good fiction about ww1 or ww2? Preferably from a british pov.
Wyatt Garcia
Why doesn't more historical fiction make the canon?

Lincoln Roberts
To The Last Man and The Rising Tide by Jeff Shaara
Carter Cruz
That is a standalone novel right? Just read some of the extract and seems interesting. I remember a while back reading a different novel about the Battle of Agincourt and liking it.
Have you read The Last Kingdom?

Haven't read very much historical fiction at all, but Mary Renault's stories set in Ancient Greece are fantastic.

I'm going to read Vidal's Julian soon as well as the play by Ibsen. He is a fascinating character. Apparently, Hitler loved that play and in his life there are many parallels to Ibsen's Julian.

Liam Roberts

Adam Robinson
>That is a standalone novel right?

If you like Azincourt you should check out The Archer's Tale by Cornwell

Couple of adventures books:
Gentlemen of the Road by Michael Chabon
Captain Alatriste by Arturo Perez Reverte

Cornwell is GOAT historical fiction. Stonehenge is also pretty good. The warlord chronicles, even though its more fiction than history I guess, is his best series
Sebastian Parker
King Solomon's Mines t b h

I read his book about Belisarius and found it really boring.
Daniel Lee

I've read The Winter King and it was great.
You're saying the sequels are just as good?
Sounds good to me!
