The biggest marvellous surprise a few years ago was his gripping, absorbing book set in the 12th century, "<a href="http://www.ken-follett.com/bibliography/the_pillars_of_the_earth.html">Pillars of the Earth</a>". A total departure from his other genre, high adventure, suspenseful stories, none of which can easily be put down when you start reading them.<br /><br />I am reading "World Without End" and am at page 761. Already I regret that this book only has 1014 pages! It is by far one of the best books I've read in a very long time. It might replace <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Shogun-James-Clavell/dp/0440178002">James Clavell's Shogun</a> as my all-time favourite, or at least dwell beside it, sharing that spot.pixeldrummerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08342774400155948962noreply@blogger.com
