Cornwell’s Arthur series is fantastic. If you liked the Saxon books you’ll like it. Three books set in the 500s in Britain. It’s a gritty realistic world like Uhtred’s except with a light touch of ambiguous magic.

I’ll probably read it eventually. I’ve been reading a ton of fiction and non fiction on the post-antiquity pre-medieval works and want to mix it up some

This! I was surprised how much I liked it. Such an interesting take on Arthur and etc. The characters were fantastic.
My cousin and I were discussing booksand he was telling me about the Saxon Series before I read any Cornwell, and I was telling him about the Red Rising Series. What we found after reading each other's suggestions is that Cornwell and Brown both have great action sequences and have some similarities in the way they write them.
Apologies for bumping an ancient thread. Got excited while recollecting Cornwell's Arthur series.
