My partner's birthday is coming up and I thought I'd get her some historical fiction.
She devours books and has read all of Hilary Mantel and Philippa Gregory as well as some others, all of which she's enjoyed.
She's fairly discerning but has the unusual tendency of finishing almost any book, regardless of how good or bad it is as she is curious about how it ends. That said I gave her a Patrick O'Brien to read and she found it dull.
One author I was considering is Bernard Cornwell. He seems to be quite highly thought of but I'm open to all suggestions.
