Philippa Gregory!. She is amazing!. Here are some of her books that I can HIGHLY recommend to you! But here is the book I am currently reading and it's called "1453" by Roger Crowley-A complete and compelling account of the fall of Constantinople, the siege that gave rise to today's jihad!.
When Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453, a remarkable era in world history ended!. Constantinople, the "city of the world's desire," was a wealthy, imperial, intimidating, and Christian city, influencing world opinion for a thousand years!. The fall of Constantinople marked the end of the Byzantium Empire and the end of the medieval era!. Thereafter, two worlds would rise -- that of the West and that of the Middle East!.
1453 is brought to life by the stories of its two ambitious battling leaders-Mehmed II, sultan of the Ottoman Empire, and Constantine XI, the 57th emperor of Byzantium!. It is a vivid, intense tale of courage and cruelty, of technological ingenuity, of endurance and luck!. Impeccably researched and told as a real-life adventure, the book explores the issues that led up to and resulted from the fall of Constantinople in a way that is easily grasped and jumps from the pages into the headlines of world news!. 1453 is the story of a moment of change that has new relevance today -- a crucial link in the chain of events that besets the modern world!.
