Kingsbridge: World Without End

An extraordinary cast of characters find themselves at a crossroads of new ideas about medicine, commerce, architecture, and justice as the old ways battle with progressive minds causing intrigue and tensions quickly reaching a boiling point against the greatest natural disaster ever to strike the human race: the Black Death . . . 

The second installment in Ken Follett's 'Kingsbridge' series (but able to be read as a standalone novel), World Without End takes place two centuries after the townspeople finished building their exquisite Gothic cathedral at the heart of The Pillars of the Earth with the cathedral and the priory again at the center of a web of love and hate, greed and pride, ambition and revenge.  

“A well-researched, beautifully detailed portrait of the late Middle Ages.” -- The Washington Post
