I'd love people to share these interests with, but everybody keeps talking about world wars and the industrial revolution, which make my eyes glaze over. I like the ancient and prehistoric anyone else, or is this yet another one of my interests that nobody else shares?
I recently finished a trilogy of books by Joe Abercrombie which are set in a mediaval sort of environment with lots of politics, slavery, wars and subterfuge. Very well written and covers a lot of the issues of living in such a time / environment.
The books are Half A King, Half A War and Half A World.
They are actually set far in the future long after society decimated itself so there is a hint of sci-fi but it is kept to an absolute minimum and is really just a story plot item.
