And don't forget the historical novels of Rosemary Sutcliff.
THE EAGLE OF THE NINTH, is set in Britain in 117 A. D. as the Ninth Legion of the Roman Army clashes with the Caledonian tribes. Her DRAGON SLAYER is the story of Beowulf in short novel form. Her work includes many other distinguished historical novels set in ancient Britain.
She wrote a generation ago, but her prose is still vivid, her stories riveting and her settings tangible.
