Looking for Historical Fiction Similar to Bernard Cornwell (Saxon Stories & Warlord Chronicles)

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for historical fiction books similar in style to Bernard Cornwell’s The Saxon Stories and The Warlord Chronicles.

I’ve already tried reading Conqueror by Conn Iggulden. While I thought the first book was good, I ended up dropping the series after the second one. I can’t quite explain why—it just didn’t hold my interest the same way. Because of that, I’d prefer not to get recommendations for that series, other books by the same author, or anything very similar in style to his work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
