Sounds like a fun challenge. I do love the historical fiction genre, especially Medieval times. I am not sure if you are going to sway away from medieval at all, but if you do, you should definitely check out an ancient Egyptian historical fiction, “Shadow of the Sun” by Merrie P. Wycoff- it is so good, I honestly couldn’t put it down.

The Middle Ages is my most favorite period in history, and the one I studied most, but I read all kinds of HF. thanks for the recommendation.
