Dan Jones recommends
Doom Painting (2026)
A K Blakemore
"Playful, violent, bloody and funny, Doom Painting makes poetry of England's great medieval peasant rebellion. As strange and wonderful as The Glutton, this book confirms A.K. Blakemore as one of the most original writers of historical fiction at work today."
The House of Wolf (2025)
(House of Aethelwolf, book 1)
Tony Robinson
"Pacy and vivid, bloody and funny, The House of Wolf brings to life a medieval world on the brink of sweeping change. This is a page-turner full of unforgettable characters - underpinned by historical intelligence, wit and heart."
Navola (2024)
Paolo Bacigalupi
"Medici Florence meets Tony Soprano's New Jersey - with a delicious dash of high fantasy and a heavy splattering of blood. Navola is a grand feat of imagination by a storyteller at the peak of his powers."
