The Revenant
The Stars My Destination (a partial retelling of Monte Christo in a SF setting)
True Grit

Aztec by Gary Jennings, only the very first one. It was the first book I read in Spanish so I don't know how the prose is in English.

For two short stories, I always like La Grand Breteche and La Duchesse de Langais by Balzac.
