Can anyone recommend any novels or short stories set in the Middle Ages? I've read The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco and Flying to Nowhere by John Fuller - both of which are excellent. Oh and the Shardlake novels. Please no fanfiction or fantasy!

Laurus by Eugene Vodolazkin, seen others suggest it on here and it is really great
quite a few of Walter Scott's novels are set in the middle ages but they might be too fantastical for your taste
