The Century Trilogy: Fall of Giants
Follow the fates of five interconnected families (American, German, Russian, English, and Welsh) as they move through the world shaking dramas of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the struggle for women's suffrage . . .
Moving seamlessly from Washington to St. Petersburg, from the dirt and danger of a coal mine to the glittering chandeliers of a palace, from the corridors of power to the bedrooms of the mighty, Fall of Giants' historical background is brilliantly researched and rendered, the action is fast-moving, and the characters are rich in nuance and emotion.
"Empires fall, heroes rise, and love conquers as Follett once again creates a world that is both familiar and fantastic." -- Time Out New York
