I haven't come across them, so I'll add them to my reading list! I think Nicola might like Bernard Cornwell - Sharpe for an army based perspective on Hornblower's period, and the Uhtred stories which do have a certain amount of Viking sea-going, and I think she'd have liked Uhtred. I can't decide if she would have liked Flashman as she got older. She'd have appreciated the history, but would she ever get over being repelled by his character?
