The Pillars of the Earth Reviews
Displaying all 3 reviews
Although it's been a year since I read Ken Follet's epic novel, I vividly remember its characters, and settings. Tom Builder and how a cathedral is built are two major elements of this book. I enjoyed how women are potrayed too. They are all strong, admirable people in unique ways. Historical fiction is a great genre because I appreciate the history lessons as well as a compelling story.
this is such a good book. please do not be intimidated by the length. the plot is so complex and intriguing i love it. it is historically accurate and the ending is just marvalous. it is such a good book. definately one everyone should read sometime in their life.
Pillars of the Earth is a great read. I had a hard time putting this book down. The characters are captivating, and the author amazed me at how he was able to make them so relatable, due to the expanse of generations and centuries.
