James Michener's books are historical fiction, aren't they?
If they are, then I recommend them.

Hilary Mantel's Cromwell books are brilliant. I avoided them for a long time because I thought they'd be boring. They are anything but. Start with Wolf Hall.

And in the same era, Myself as Witness by James Goldman, author of The Lion in Winter, is. a good one on King John.

Prince of Foxes by Samuel Shellabarger is an oldie but goodie set in Renaissance Italy.
