For more great French-set historical fiction, then [[Pure by Andrew Miller]] is less ambitious in time frame but equally entertaining. For more great historical fiction then the obvious choice is [[Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel]] but in my view, Rutherfurd is no less a writer than Mantel and deserves similar adulation.
