Wow, this book was recommended to me and boy did it live up to it!! I love the pace, it's similar to a Matthew Reilly adventure, and I love the storyline, characters and setting. Great book. Apparently the rest of his books are just as good - I'll have to check them out!

Listened to this on cd... Terrible. I really enjoyed Pillars of the Earth, so this was a big disappointment.

Why did I have the impression it's a reiteration of the plot in The Fall of Giants, only set in different circumstances?
A bit disappointed of the depiction of the feminine character here, to be honest.

I picked this because of the author. I wanted to read Pillars of the Earth because everyone says it’s so fantastic but it wasn’t available at the library so I tried this. I thought it was going to be a virus/pandemic/thriller of sorts but it turned out to be something different. I still enjoyed it.
