Any ideas? Is there any good historical fiction? Thanks,

The Princes of Ireland by Edward Rutherford has a bit -- although it covers a lot more history than just that part. I'd be interested to hear of anything good as well! |

I looked up "Strongbow" and came up with a couple -- won't comment on the merits of any of them:

There was a novel called The Kings in Winter many years ago sorry cannot think who the author was. I had thought it was Duggan but if so its no longer in print. |

Cecilia Holland and its maybe too early for you set in 1014. |

Ignore that second link -- it's a young adult series about a Viking! |

I'm sure that I read a novel decades ago that included Strongbow's invasion, but time has erased all but an echo of that memory. Morgan Llewellyn has written a fair few books set in medieval Ireland, and Juliet Dymoke is another possibility. |
