Nate, to your list I would Household Gods. I've read everything Turtledove has written except short stories (for some reason I don't like to read short stories) and think Household Gods is where he made the best use of his academic background (he's a professor of ancient history). I also rather liked his Krispos series. I'm currently waiting for his new book to be released. I believe it is due this month.
