He has written historical novels primarily based on English history, in five series, and one series of contemporary thriller novels. A feature of his historical novels is an end note on how they match or differ from history, and what one might see at the modern sites of the events described.

Three of the historical novel series have been adapted for television: the Sharpe television series by ITV, The Last Kingdom by the BBC/Netflix and The Winter King for MGM+.

Ultimately, the food does the talking, as one-by-one the losing chefs "check out," by a rotating panel of judges that includes Melissa d'Arabian, Richard Blais, G.
