The Robe by Douglass
Gone with the Wind by Mitchell
The Physican by Gordon and the Sequel Shaman
The Secret Chord by Brooks (Most of hers are good, this one outstanding)
The Tatooist of Auschwitz by Morris (Currently have Cilka's Journey the sequel on deck)
The Nightingale by Hannah
Shashenka by Montefiore (and the two sequels)
A Gentleman in Moscow by Towles
War and Peace Tolstoy (probably my fav)
Russka by Rutherford (IMO his best work having read Sarum and London)
I read a lot of historical fiction, it's my favorite Genre. WWII is obviously big for me based on the list.

I've read and enjoyed Pillars, Gone with the Wind and Russka, which gives me high hopes for Beneath a Scarlet Sky which is waiting on my Kindle.
