Years ago I read Melissa Scott's A Choice of Destinies and your comment asking about Alexander books just brought it all coming back. It's spec fic/one of the alternative histories that asks what if Alexander had gone west instead of east to India, but then goes from there way into that world's future complete with space stations named after him, you name it. It's totally ridiculous but I remember enjoying it!

...and since you mentioned wanting to try Renault's other books, I couldn't resist a drive-by rec. If you liked the Alexander trilogy, her two books about Theseus (The King Must Die and The Bull from the Sea) have a lot in common with those. There's also my personal favorite of her historical novels, The Last of the Wine, set in Athens near the end of the Peloponnesian War. Sad endings do abound in Renault's work, but no worse than the ending of The Persian Boy, if you made it through that!
