    Default Book Reccomendations

    Hello, I'm looking for a historical novel around Medieval times. I've read most of Bernard Cornwall's books and am looking for something new. Could you guys reccomend anything.

    The Knight Templar trilogy (The Road to Jerusalem, The Knight Templar, The Kingdom at the End of the Road) by Jan Guillou (Swedish)
    *the life and deeds of Arn Magnusson (set in XII century), highly recommended. Also look for the films.

    The Heritage of Arn, again by Jan Guillou.

    The Accursed Kings (Le Rois maudits) by Maurice Druon.
    * seven books set in France during the XIV century (from the Knights Templar dismissal until the first stages of the Hundred Years' War). Highly recommended.
    * don't forget to check the movies as well

    The Name of the Rose, by Umberto Eco.
