Yuk, David Brown cant even get non-biblical history right in that book.

The Foundation Series by Issac Asimov
and any book that is written by Harry Turtledove.
Timothy Zahn star wars books are usually good too.
avoid Tom Clancy unless you're a real military buff, and even then, you might find it boring.
