*Fall Of Giants*

Fall Of Giants, BY KEN FOLLETT, PAN MACMILLAN, $49.99.

Ken Follett is perhaps best known for his two historical novels, Pillars Of The Earth and World Without End. And his reputation as a master storyteller is again confirmed. It is the first in the Century Trilogy and introduces the reader to the five families whose lives Follett will follow.

The book opens just before the outbreak of World War I and closes in 1925. At nearly 1000 pages, it’s not for the faint-hearted, but the author’s skill as a writer means you don’t even notice the size. The main characters’ lives unfold with compelling drama and complexity, and once again, Follett’s research is impeccable.
