If you want that sort of stuff - there's yet another interesting historical
novel about india. This is the first of a 5 part series about the Mughals,
Alex Rutherford's "Empire of the Moghul". The first volume is about Babur,
"Raiders from the North" - and looks reasonably authentic.

I'm currently reading $SUBJECT. I've never actually studied Indian
history or read much Indian history so I can't tell if it has any
biases. It's fairly interesting though. Can anyone comment it's slant
or lack thereof?
Haven't yet read this one. Read The Spice Route which had the
improbable attempt to squeeze a whole lot of history into a slim,
travel-ready paperback. I'd suggest not reading his The Great Arc
though if you are planning to.
