The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Life was very difficult in the medieval times. Whether it was war time or peace time, the common man faced an uncertainty that people of our time and location will find hard to comprehend.
It is not about a person. I cannot say Prior Philip or Tom Builder or Jack or Aliena or anyone to be the central character of the book. Its about all of them. Normal people with normal weaknesses.
I found the first 200 pages difficult to cross, but once the characters were all in, it was unputdownable.
A very very very good read.
