This is one of the few novels I have read multiple times - it is that good!  I think it's interesting that Oprah has endorsed it with her book club pick - I first read this back in the early 90s and have read it every few years since then.  I don't need to go through all the details of the book (there's another fantastic review with all of that information!) - I just wanted to let everyone know it's a page-turner and it pulls you in so you feel you are there with the characters.  Read it - you'll love it!

This is one of my all-time favorites, too. And I just received World Without End today from Zooba. It is the long-awaited sequel to Pillars of the Earth. I can hardly wait to get started!
