Fall of Giants, the first book in Ken Follett’s acclaimed Century Trilogy, is a sweeping historical epic of love, loyalty, war, and revolution. Spanning the early 20th century, this novel follows five families — from Wales, England, Germany, Russia, and the United States — as their lives become entwined through the monumental events of the First World War, the Russian Revolution, and the battle for women’s suffrage.
Set in 1911, the story begins on the day of King George V’s coronation. A Welsh coal-mining family, the Williamses, find their fate linked with the powerful aristocratic Fitzherberts, whose daughter, Lady Maud, falls for Walter von Ulrich, a German diplomat. Across the Atlantic, an ambitious American adviser and two orphaned Russian brothers must navigate a world on the brink of irreversible change.
From the dark depths of coal mines to the glittering halls of power, from palace intrigue to brutal battlefields, Fall of Giants delivers a masterfully crafted narrative rich in drama, history, and unforgettable characters.
