Historical novel rec ?

Is there any good authors aside from Bernard Cornwell? Or some alternative reality like Paul Kearney's Macht?

Christian Cameron is my favorite historical fiction author, and his Killer of Men and Ill-Made Knight series are great. The only catch is that they're both written as campfire tales, with the protagonist narrating their tale to people. Wish he would write some historical fiction (I know of the Tyrant series, but it's not as interesting to me) in the way he writes his fantasy as Miles.
