This is one of the few historical fictionbooks of the Crusades that I've been able to find, and it's written by the creator of Conan, no less!!!

One of my Templar buddies recommended this. Unlike other books on the Crusades, this one shows what was going on with the Muslim forces, and how their inability to unite contributed to the Crusader's success.

This is an English translation of a book written in 1100-1101 by an unknown author who was an actual member of the First Crusades, hence the hefty price tag. It's a first person account of the First Crusade by someone who was actually there.
