The Century Trilogy: Winter of the World
Re-join (or discover for the first time) five interrelated families (of American, German, Russian, English, and Welsh decent) as they enter a time of enormous social, political, and economic turmoil, beginning with the rise of the Third Reich, through the Spanish Civil War and the great dramas of World War II, up to the explosions of the American and Soviet atomic bombs . . .
As always with Ken Follett, the historical background found within the pages of Winter of the World is brilliantly researched and rendered, the action fast-moving, the characters rich in nuance and emotion, and the writing comes with the passion of a master as he brings readers into a world they thought they knew, but that now will never seem the same again.
"A masterfully sweeping tale, Winter of the World is full of political intrigue, amorous episodes, suspense, and drama, making history come to life." -- The Louisville Courier-Journal
