Ken Follett’s World Without End returns readers to the medieval town of Kingsbridge, two centuries after the events of The Pillars of the Earth. The magnificent Gothic cathedral that once symbolised hope and ambition still stands, but the town’s future lies in the hands of a new generation of unforgettable characters.
Set against the turbulent backdrop of the 14th century — a time of shifting power, social upheaval, and the looming threat of the Black Death — the story follows the intertwined lives of ordinary men and women caught between tradition and change. As conflicts over medicine, commerce, architecture, and justice erupt, old ways collide with radical new ideas.
In this sweeping epic of love and betrayal, ambition and revenge, personal fortunes rise and fall as Kingsbridge’s citizens navigate one of the darkest and most transformative periods in history. World Without End masterfully combines historical drama, political intrigue, and rich character-driven storytelling in a novel that stands proudly on its own.
