I don’t know if Robert Harris the Author is popular over in Oz?
Together with CJ Sampson (the wonderful Shardlake series about the dissolution of the monasteries in 16th Century England, Simon Scarrow, mostly books about the Roman Empire, Robert Harris is my favourite author.
Here are his top 10 rated books.

They are all great but the Book at NO 1 is really superb although I would probably rate Pompeii slightly higher.
