On the day after Halloween, in the year 1327, four children slip away from the cathedral city of Kingsbridge. They are a thief, a bully, a boy genius and a girl who wants to be a doctor. In the forest they see two men killed. As adults, their lives will be braided together by ambition, love, greed and revenge. They will see prosperity and famine, plague and war. One boy will travel the world but come home in the end; the other will be a powerful, corrupt nobleman. One girl will defy the might of the medieval church; the other will pursue an impossible love. And always they will live under the long shadow of the unexplained killing they witnessed on that fateful childhood day.Ken Follett's masterful epic "The Pillars of the Earth" enchanted millions of readers with its compelling drama of war, passion and family conflict set around the building of a cathedral. Now "World Without End" takes the readers back to medieval Kingsbridge two centuries later, as the men, women and children of the city once again grapple with the devastating sweep of historical change. 'Follett's storytelling skills keep you compulsively turning the pages to the satisfactory ending of good triumphant over evil' - "Daily Mail".

評分可以说十分草率了,与圣殿春秋的差距不是一点点,几个兴风作浪的主角居然死得这么容易,瘟疫是最大杀手,却掩盖不了主角的光环,难道梅尔辛幸存之后,以凯瑞丝睿智又深究的性格不应该挖原因吗?拉夫尔杀死了自己的妻子这种入地狱的事,就这么不了了之了,实在莫名其妙;菲利蒙...
評分大约1年以前,发现电子书阅读器是个好东西,托一个美国朋友带了一个回来,爱不释手,满心欢喜。 然后在网上找电子书下载来阅读,遂浏览New York Times的Book Best-Sellers列表,发现Ken Follett先生的小说《World Without End》名列榜首,通过非法的P2P网络,我下载到了PDF...
