What other periods of historical fantasy would you read?

If one has a hankering for a rip-roaring fantasy set in modern-day Swindon (and lets face it, who secretly doesn't?) then one could do worse than try Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next books.

Have you come across the Thraxas novels by Martin Millar? Picaresque gumshoe stories set in a Romanesque city. With added elves, women in chainmail bikinis, beer.

No. Thanks for adding to my mount TBR - now I'll have even less time to sleep to catch up :p

No - and thanks for adding to my Mount TBR :p
And since it looks pure fantasy, allow me to return the favour by pointing you at Steven Brust's Jhereg series.
