Edited to say that if Dorothy Dunnett weren't dead, I'd be looking forward to a new series from her. Her stuff is not nearly as trashy as a lot of stuff I read. But she's dead. There's one book of hers I haven't read because I accidentally sent it to my parents' house when I ordered it and now I have to wait until I see them to get it.

Antonia Frasier, Tim Severin and Bryce Courtenay. Works by Severin and Courtenay are hard to find in the States. Severin's older works are out of print and Courtenay's stuff is rare in the States, amazon.com only lists The Power of One.
Can anyone recommend a good mystery or historical fiction series? I've gone through all the Dorothy Sayers, Elizabeth George, Dorothy Dunnett, and Conan Doyle among others. I'm looking for something new for hibernation season.
