À propos de cet audio

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.

I have read some of the Ken Follett’s spy and thriller books in the past and always linked him to that genre. As an avid reader of historical novels I was pleasantly surprised - the story grabs you and never lets go. I found myself thinking about it and wanting to know more, it was hard to resist pausing the narrative. I am definitely going to buy his remaining three books with a historical theme.

Pleasantly surprised

This book was truly riveting. I really felt like I was back there in that time period. I wasn’t sure I would like this book as I am in now way religious but the books accuracy to history and it’s balance of tender love and brutal violence made it thrilling to listen to for the whole 40 hours.
Highly recommend.

This has become my favourite book

For a book that’s 40 hours long, I can honestly say I was never bored. I had a hard time pausing it. The story is well thought out, full of intrigue and fully engaging. The characters are believable, and demonstrate the intricacies of human emotions. I highly recommend this book, as well the others in the series.

Gripping

I am not sure if I have ever listened to a better novel. Ken writes with passion and detail that I have never experienced. his writing places you i. the events of his literature. I suspect that this is in my top three favorite listening books, Matthew's Green Lights is also there. Enjoy if you wish

Ken places you in the medieval time

John Lee is a fantastic voice actor. His narration is high quality and Ken Follett's story is superb.
The audio quality at times, though, sounds as though it was downloaded from a scratched CD. I'm not entirely sure why Audible or even Penguin Books didn't get a better quality version to upload here.

Great Story and Narration

What can I say, this was truly a masterfully written book that really gets ahold of you. I’ve never felt such a deep connection to a books characters nor have I been so sad once a story was over. An exceptional read!

Absolute Masterpiece

love this series. this is my second time listening. lots of historical facts.
The only little criticism for this novel is that *little spoiler coming* Elena's out of character revelation that she is going to leave Jack and take her kids is just not believable.

great historical fiction series
