World without End

Description

A war that lasts a hundred years. A plague that ravages a continent. A rivalry that could destroy everything.

On the day after Halloween, in the year 1327, four children slip away from the cathedral  city of Kingsbridge. In the forest they see two men killed. As adults, their lives become  braided together by desire, determination, avarice and retribution. They will see  prosperity and famine, plague and war. Yet they will always live under the shadow of the  unexplained killing on that fateful childhood day

Ken Follett’s masterful epic The Pillars of the Earth enchanted millions of readers with its  compelling drama of war, passion and family conflict, set around the building of a  cathedral. Now World Without End takes readers back to medieval Kingsbridge two  centuries later, as the men, women and children of the city once again grapple with the  devastating sweep of historical change.
