As there is no beast these are some I would recommend.
The Pillars of the Earth<span><span>Memoirs of a </span>Geisha</span><span>I, Claudius</span><span><span>The Book </span>Thief</span><span>Atonement</span><span>The Crucible</span><span><span>One Hundred </span><span>Years of </span>Solitude</span><span><span>A Breath of </span><span>Snow and </span>Ashes<span>
</span></span>
They made federal government too weak.
Hope this helps!
