- Book Synopsis
- The historical saga that has enthralled millions of readers, Ken Follett's Kingsbridge Novels continue with World Without End. A childhood lost. 1327 and four children slip away from the cathedral city of Kingsbridge. It is All Hallow's Day and their lives are forever changed when they see two men-at-arms killed. At the behest of the man responsible they vow never to speak of it again. A never-forgotten secret. Lives forever entwined, one boy travels the world, one eye always on Kingsbridge; the other becomes a powerful, corrupt nobleman. One girl defies the might of the medieval church; whilst the other pursues an impossible love. As ambition, love, greed and revenge reign, those living under that long-ago day's fateful shadow wait. A world on the verge of death. But as the Black Plague sweeps Europe, disease reaches England and the city descends into anarchy. In desperate uncertainty for their futures, the four adults know the time must come for the secret to emerge . . . World Without End is followed by the third of Ken Follett's novels, A Column of Fire. More than 175 million copies sold worldwide. Published in over eighty territories and thirty-seven languages. The international No. 1 bestselling phenomenon returns.
- About The Author
- Ken Follett was born in Cardiff, Wales. Barred from watching films and television by his parents, he developed an early interest in reading thanks to a local library. After studying philosophy at University College London, he became involved in centre-left politics, entering into journalism soon after. His first thriller, the wartime spy drama Eye of the Needle, became an international bestseller and has sold over 10 million copies. He then astonished everyone with his first historical novel, The Pillars of the Earth, the story of the building of a medieval cathedral, which went on to become one of the most beloved books of the twentieth century. One of the most popular authors in the world, his many books including the Kingsbridge series and the Century trilogy - a body of work which together chronicles over a thousand years of history - and his latest novel Never - which envisages how World War III could happen - have sold more than 188 million copies. A father and husband, Ken lives with his wife in England and enjoys travelling the world when he can.
