Het verhaal is meeslepend. Toch zijn de personages nogal eendimensionaal. Follett heeft de middeleeuwen grondig bestudeerd en laat niet na al die kennis in het boek te stoppen. De voorlezer is een ramp: leest in een onprettige zeer nadrukkelijke cadans.

Lang geleden Pillars of the Earth gelezen, nu genoten van het hieraan voorafgaande verhaal. Fantastisch geschreven, fantastisch voorgelezen. Dit deel is dus heel goed als ‘eerste’ deel te lezen. Geen spoilers voor het eerder geschreven boek dat dus over een latere periode gaat. En andersom ;)

A story like a soap opera but entertaining enough to finish
