Books : Fiction : English This selection of Historical Novels has been collected from innumerable sources over a lengthy period. In making the selection, I thought for some time before opting to include such works as the Sharpe books of Bernard Cornwell, Ellis Peters' Cadfael series and the Michael Jecks Coroner novels. However, I was assured by someone with an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Napoleonic Wars that the Sharpe stories contain surprisingly accurate historical detail. As such authors as Ellis Peters, Lindsey Davis and Michael Jecks seem to be equally careful with their research, I saw no reason to exclude them or to deny them the same exposure as that offered to other authors using a historical template, just because they chose a criminal core for their stories. I have, however, decided to avoid the avowed fantasy novels of David Gemmell and any suggestion of alternative realities. I shall not try here to list all the books included; but the authors are: Alex Haley Alison Weir Bernard Cornwell Boris Pasternak C J Sansom Chris Bradford Christian Cameron Colleen McCullough Conn Iggulden Dorothy Dunnett Eiji Yoshikawa Elizabeth Chadwick Ellis Peters Erich Maria Remarque Gary Jennings Georgette Heyer James Clavell Jean M Auel Jean Plaidy Jeff Shaara Ken Follett Larry McMurtry Laura Joh Rowland Leon Uris Lindsey Davis Mary Renault Mary Stewart Maurice Druon Michael Jecks Michael Shaara Philippa Gregory Robert Graves Robert Harris Sharon K Penman Simon Scarrow Sir Walter Scott Steven Pressfield Steven Saylor Tim Severin Tom Holt Valerio Massimo Manfredi Wilbur Smith All are MOBIs; but the collection does not contain all the historical novels by the listed authors and there is therefore plenty of scope for interested readers to search out further gems. Enjoy and Seed!!
