[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 6042447, member: 10479"] Well, I know a very good book by how I feel compelled to finish it. Ken Follett's [i]World Without End[/i] drew me in early but the pacing was such that the more I read, the more I wanted to read, and this seemed to increase as I got into the second half of the story. I basically knocked off the last quarter over the weekend. And, of course, my feeling is further validated by my not wanting it to end and the quick search to see if there was or will be a third using this setting. It uses the same setting as [i]The Pillars of the Earth[/i] but 150 years after the close of that novel. Solid prose throughout, and, I'm shooting fromt he hip on this, it seems to rely a bit less on dialog than [i]Pillars[/i] because it felt like I was more immersed in the POV of the various lead characters. Now I have to see if my buddy still has the miniseries on his DVR! [/QUOTE]
