Ken Follett
Immerse yourself in Ken Follett's masterful continuation of Kingsbridge, a medieval epic of deep human intrigues, conflicts between progress and tradition, and the devastating Black Death that redefines historical fiction.
Twenty years after The Pillars of the Earth became an unprecedented publishing phenomenon that captivated millions of readers, Ken Follett returned to the fascinating world of Kingsbridge with World Without End. This eagerly anticipated epic saga, set two centuries after the culmination of its majestic Gothic temple, presents an admirable and even deeper portrait of the medieval world, bringing a new dimension to historical fiction. The imposing cathedral and priory of Kingsbridge are, once again, the center of an intricate human crossroads, where love and hate, pride and greed, ambition and revenge intertwine. In a world where staunch defenders of old customs fiercely battle more progressive minds exploring new ideas about medicine, commerce, architecture, and justice, intrigue and tension quickly escalate to unbearable limits. All this unfolds against the backdrop of the Black Death, the greatest natural catastrophe to ever strike humanity, annihilating half of the European population and plunging the continent into an era of profound change and despair. Political intrigue, assassinations, devastating famines, inescapable plagues, and fierce wars form the vibrant tapestry of this narrative. World Without End is not only a masterful continuation but an extraordinary novel that consolidates Ken Follett as a paramount author at the peak of his art. This new special edition includes an author's preface, commemorating the 10th anniversary of its publication, offering an additional perspective on this monumental work.
