The sequel to Pillars of the Earth is just as long, and just as captivating. Set in England in 1300 AD, it’s the story of two lovers whose lives are torn apart by the greed of the English church. Their struggle for survival is pitted against the brutality of the English nobility and the backhanded dealings amongst the clergy to gain favor in the eyes of the King of England. Wealth and nepotism take center stage in this deeply moving story of love and war, wasted lives, and dreams that can never be fulfilled.
