Od momentu, gdy skończyłem lekturę “Upadku gigantów” minęło całkiem sporo czasu, akurat tyle, bym kompletnie zapomniał imiona i nazwiska bohaterów. Pamiętam natomiast żal, jaki czułem, gdy dotarłem do ostatnich stron - żal osoby, która wie, że nic nie wyjdzie postaciom z ich planów, że nie zaznają s...
I like Follett and his espionage novels. But this is, sadly, a letdown of sorts. It has an excellent plot, though its more or less a rehash of the 'Eye of the Needle' scenario. Its execution is nearly good, save for being at least 50 pages too long with a bland ending. The action parts are typical F...
I could hardly put this book down. It was a fantastic novel that kept me going from start to finish. I like how, unlike a number of historical fiction authors, Follett does not romanticize the period. People are depicted as filthy, smelly, and the towns are not described much better. The fact that...
I liked it from the beginning till two third of the plot. the story should have well ended before. instead follett keeps on introducing unwanted artificial twists just to drag up the tale. though finally he finishes it so suddenly and bluntly that you read that part again just to make sure nothing h...
As the final installment of Follett's sweeping Century Trilogy, this book is difficult to rate. Fall of Giants and Winter of the World were fabulous novels, the first covering WWI and the second WWII. The scope is expanded for Edge of Eternity to cover the entire remainder of the 20th century, start...
I like me a big fat historical novel for holiday down-times, and this one, set in World War I, filled the bill this past Christmas. There's lots and lots of plot for the various characters who embody their class/nationality/political opinions. Otherwise, few of them were very compelling, and I could...
I hear many saying that this is a book comparable to ken's eye of the needle. but on reality it was no where near to it yes it was thrilling and fast paced but after a certain period you feel those flashbacks were taking you away from the plot. also the sex scenes in this book were totally unnecessa...
Words cannot describe how brilliant this book is! At over a thousand pages, Follett's epic masterpiece is the longest book I've ever read but it was worth it. Every minute spent turning pages was joyful yet sorrowful as I knew the world of greed, treachery, love, loyalty and architecture I'd been dr...
thrills and chills (literally and figuratively) are just a few of the surprises awaiting the reader! a must-read for Ken Follett fans and those who love thrillers.
The story picks up in 1961, and is followed by decades of turmoil in America and elsewhere. Many of the characters in the initial two volumes return to this finale. The Dewars, the Francks, the Peshkovs and the Williams all somehow manage to cross paths again. They are united in their fields of ende...
