If you liked the Century Trilogy, youâ€™ll love the â€œextraordinary . . . monumental masterpieceâ€ (Booklist) that changed the course of Ken Follettâ€™s already phenomenal career.

â€œFollett risks all and comes out a clear winner,â€ extolledÂ Publishers WeeklyÂ on the release ofÂ The Pillars of the Earth. A departure for the bestselling thriller writer, the historical epic stunned readers and critics alike with its ambitious scope and gripping humanity. Today, it stands as a testament to Follettâ€™s unassailable command of the written word and to his universal appeal.Â
Â
The Pillars of the EarthÂ 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 architectâ€”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.
Â
A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follettâ€™s historical masterpiece.
