I need a suggestion for a good historical fiction?
I just finished Pillars of the Earth and the follow-up World Without End. Could anyone suggest a good historical fiction? I have read quite a few historical fictions but seem to be in a rut choosing a new one.

You could try Philippa Gregory books. She wrote The other Boleyn Girl and has written a number of others about the Tudors. I love them!
As you like Ken Follett you might also like Bernard Cornwall

Try Diana Gabaldon’s ‘Outlander’ Series. There’s 5 books written so far. They are set mostly in 1740’s Scotland and the Revolutionary War time in the U.S.
