For anyone who likes gritty war stories, try Salammbo. Yes, it's Flaubert, he of the Madame Bovary fame. There's a slight romance in it, but mostly barbarians, death and violence in a huge variety of ways (including elephants, crucifixions, things on fire, sacrifices to gods, siege engines, and more), and things like setting pigs on fire. Not that I'm promoting the practice of setting pigs on fire, mind you, but for the purposes of breaking through the ranks of a larger army who has elephants, pigs on fire worked very nicely.
