How big is an endorsement for a book by GRRM for you?

Yes, most definitely. And GRRM is correct, brilliant battle scenes. The Beeb’s TV adaptations is really pretty good too. It speeds things up and glosses over some stuff and makes a few changes but even book fans seem to be fine with them. There are currently  9+ books in the series I believe. And they all finish with a nice author’s note about the actual historical events that inspired the book, including where he took liberties with history.

of course the best books by Cornwell is the Warlord Trilogy. It’s a reimagining of the Arthurian legend and it’s fantastic

Ok I've just reading the first book and started on the second; I have to say while I genuinely loved the show and think it does an excellent job, I found the book series superior so far.
