ntsot's "Historical fiction I have enjoyed"

Add to my lists | Print this list

I didn’t find any lists of historical fiction among the lists of bests, except the one on Chinese historical fiction (I still need to work on it). When I search the term "historical fiction" at the library 1000s of books show up some of which simply qualify because they do not take day in present times. Personally, I enjoy books with a great plot, but also a lot of historical facts. This way, I get to enjoy reading and the benefit of learning something at the same time.
