I loved revisiting King's Bridge, learning about the origins of the town I already spent hours of my life reading about. The story is easy to follow and the three main characters' lives are interwoven in a very skilful way. I feel like I learned slightly less about the historical period and certainly less about architecture in this book than the last, but I still throughly enjoyed reading this book and think it is much improved from Follett's last installment of the Series (Column of Fire).

I thoroughly enjoyed this volume and it was quick to get through for a big this size. I had a much more emotional connection with this one than the previous, but didn't love it as much as the 2nd. Still an intelligent book. I feel as the romance wasn't as central to the plot, this influenced by less attachment, but I still really enjoyed the read.
