Question: Have you ever read a book by the Italian writers collective Wu Ming FKA Luther Blisset? They're great!

    I most enjoyed Q and Altai (first published under Luther Blisset, the latter is the sequel), both set in the 16th century around the reformation, The Army of Sleepwalkers, set in Paris during the French revolution and their newest "UFO 78", which had some funny "Illuminatus!"-vibes strewn in. All their novels are romans à clefs, the Italian originals are all published under Creative Commons licences.

    ...or to make it shorter: Start with Q. It has a great pace, is a fun read and the historical research is meticulous.
