Unabridged Audiobook
I can listen to the century trilogy over and over it never gets old.
Excellent book with great historical references and settings. Very well read as well. Just sit back and enjoy!
Enjoyed the mixture of history and fiction.
Great read
Being a true Ken Follett fan, I was in no way disappointed. His pen continues to keep history alive.
very engaging
Love Ken Follett and the way he weaves fictional characters with historical events. The story and characters are deep. The narrator is FANTASTIC! Looking forward to book #2.
Absolutely riveting. Wonderful book, superbly read. The narrator has an amazing command of accents and voices, and pulled me into the story in the first few minutes. My understanding of WW1 and the Russian Revolution was deeply enriched, too. I thoroughly enjoyed it (and immediately purchased book 2 in the series!)
John Lee does such an amazing way of bringing the characters to life. Just started book two+
Another excellent work of Ken Follett. The history of the probable causes of WWI, the discrimination of classes, the well developed characters all coming together to provide a thoughtful and entertaining listen. WELL DONE!!!
What a wonderful audio book! I enjoyed absolutely everything about this story. I felt as though I learned so much while being captivated by the heart of these characters. The narrative was some of the best I've ever heard. His talent with accents is unmatched. Please give this book a try!!!
Ken Follett is an excellent author of historical fiction. His research is thorough and his story telling is mesmerizing and addictive. The narrator of this book is filled with talent. I really enjoyed his style. He is a great talent and is a pleasure to listen to.
Excellent book. The narrator does a fabulous job! It is well worth your time!
Excellent! I rarely read historical novels, but was enthralled by the rich historical tapestry woven by the intertwined perspectives of characters in France, UK, Russia, Germany and US, prior, during and after WWI. Fascinating, captivating, will continue with remainder of trilogy.
Another great book by Ken Follett, with excellent narration ,
Huge fan of the book and the series as a whole. Gone through them several times now and still find them very enjoyable. I appreciate the author's style and he does an excellent job of conveying the feeling and sentiment of the events. I feel the narrator did about as good of a job as anyone person can be expected to do trying to portray more than a dozen different characters with any sense of variation. Overall a very enjoyable piece and I highly recommend it.
Slightly slow to start, but within a couple of chapters the Follet Magic kicked in and gripped me the rest of the way through!
