Follett presents his worlds in granular detail, but the narratives never stand still. Something dramatic, appalling or enraging happens in virtually every chapter. . . . The result is a massive entertainment that illuminates an obscure corner of British history with intelligence and great narrative energy." --The Washington Post "Follett takes you to a time long past with brio and razor-sharp storytelling.

Synopsis#1 New York Times Bestseller An Amazon Best Book of 2020 The thrilling and addictive prequel to The Pillars of the Earth --set in England at the dawn of a new era: the Middle Ages "Just as transporting as [ The Pillars of the Earth ] . . . A most welcome addition to the Kingsbridge series." -- The Washington Post It is 997 CE, the end of the Dark Ages. England is facing attacks from the Welsh in the west and the Vikings in the east. Those in power bend justice according to their will, regardless of ordinary people and often in conflict with the king. Without a clear rule of law, chaos reigns. In these turbulent times, three characters find their lives intertwined. A young boatbuilder's life is turned upside down when his home is raided by Vikings, forcing him and his family to move and start their lives anew in a small hamlet where he does not fit in. . . . A Norman noblewoman marries for love, following her husband across the sea to a new land, but the customs of her husband's homeland are shockingly different, and it soon becomes clear to her that a single misstep could be catastrophic. . . . A monk dreams of transforming his humble abbey into a center of learning that will be admired throughout Europe. And each in turn comes into dangerous conflict with a clever and ruthless bishop who will do anything to increase his wealth and power. Thirty years ago, Ken Follett published his most popular novel, The Pillars of the Earth. Now, Follett's masterful new prequel The Evening and the Morning takes us on an epic journey into a historical past rich with ambition and rivalry, death and birth, love and hate, that will end where The Pillars of the Earth begins.

Keep the work of Follett coming
Ken Follett is an amazing author. I admire him and love all of his work. Every novel I have read by this man, from Pillars of the Earth to the trilogy, has had a profound impact on me. I can’t put any of his books down but at the same time I don’t want them to end. As I write this review, I hope he is hard at work on another novel that is both educational and a compelling story of the human condition.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Disappointing
Well I purchased and read the long awaited finish to the trilogy which began with Pillars of the Earth. All I can add to my subject above is that it is well written, as expected. However possibly it is hard to accept once you’ve read POTENTIAL. As you can imagine it is a saga in itself as the other two are. For me this item lacked the necessary action you’d expect from the era and local characters . The pretense of cross Channel marriage set a wonderful opportunity for skirmishes and battles. Well they just didn’t appear, instead we had more sex. Possibly Mr. Follett has gotten old and tired.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
