A review by medea_jade
Cathedral of the Sea by Ildefonso Falcones

5.0

A masterpiece of historical fiction. If you want to read a book about the building of a cathedral I would recommend this book. It is orders better than Pillars of the Earth. This book is written with exquisite attention to detail. The world of 14th century Barcelona is brought to life in a way that allows you to breath in the atmosphere of the city and its residents. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of the genre.
