I like Cornwall.

Lisa

The last kingdom!!! Also clan of the cave bear was worth a read, but I wouldn’t call that historical by any means.

Troy

Cornwell is excellent. I also recommend Stephen Pressfield books too. Start with Gates of Fire.

Clay

Love Bernard Cornwell. Read most of his books. Big fan of the Sharpe series. Not tried any angus Donald.

I didnt read Sharpe or last kingdom because I had seen the show but I’ve read almost all the rest of his stuff, loved the ones about English archers

Clay

Lucas I also really like his Excalibur trilogy.

LucasQuestion author

Clay yes! Wicked cool twist with Gwynevere and Lancelot

Nik

Yes outlaw is excellent as was Cornwell s last kingdom

I like The last Kingdom a lot. and Pillars of the Earth. Have you tried The Strongbow Saga by Judson Roberts? its about a Viking boy- I really enjoyed it.

LucasQuestion author

Ken I saw the pillars of earth show and absolutely hated it so never tried the books but I’ll check out that other series

Ken

Lucas The book Pillar of the Earth was way better than the series. I think it appeals to people who like multi-generational epics like Edward Rutherfurd and James Michener.

I love Cornwell and Iggulden. Cornwell’s Warlord chronicles series is his magnum opus. It’s perfection.
