[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dorothy Dunnett (esp Lymond Chronicles) is the best historical fiction ever but it’s very dense (often someone will just recite a verse in medieval French and you have no idea what they are saying). [/quote] Absolutely agreed! Wonderful books but very dense. I also love Mary Renault for something a bit shorter although the historical accuracy while great for when the books were written has not always aged well. If you’re open to fantasy elements, Freedom and Necessity by Emma Bull and Steven Burst is excellent.[/quote]
