I read this series of books called Shardlake, about a lawyer in Henry VIII's court. The last two or three books increasingly feature anabaptists and their hopes to live as Jesus intended, holding all goods in common. It is treated quite sympathetically, and Shardlake, who is increasingly alienated by the status quo as the books progress, finds himself sympathising with them more and more. Unfortunately the author seems to have been very sick over the last few years, so I don't know if he will ever finish the series.

Anyway, it was pleasant to see some revolutionary struggle in those books as it was totally unexpected.
