The Pillars of the Earth

The Pillars of the Earth tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known...of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect - a man divided in his soul...of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame...and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state, and brother against brother. A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of 12th-century England, this is Ken Follett's historical masterpiece. This book runns for 40 hrs+. Great for the LONG haul. I loved this book and learnt a bit of what it may have been like to live in the 14th century....A bath once a week sounds a bit long though..lol. hope you love it as much as I did.Also excellent narrasion by John Lee. He will suck you right into the story the way he reads it. A must have audio book. Brought to you by azoozz, comment always welcome. N.B. Also check out www.the-pillars-of-the-earth.tv there appears to be a miniseries coming out in 2010.. I really hope they do the book justice and not hack to hell...

Thank You for the share. I purchased Pillars Of The Earth and didn't upload as it was previously posted. You may be pleased to know the sequel "World Without End" is here already. I recommend the follow-up with the caveat that it may or may not be as good; depending on perspective but my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

PS: Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series (published in the UK as Cross Stitch) seems to be available here to provide another journey to 'Olde England'. I couldn't get past the 'bodice ripper' aspect of Outlander but obviously the author found a market since she tapped out 7 of the tomes and they've all found their way to Pirate Bay.

Pillars of the Earth is Ken Follet's best work. I havent listened to World Without End yet, but plan to some day.
