The Pillars of the Earth

by Ken Follett

*** [3/5]

This is a fun and easy read but leaves you empty with all the shallow characters. In general it tells the story of a family of masons involved in the creation of the Kingsbridge cathedral. The lives of the characters also touch on key historical events of the day, but not in a convincing way. Nice book for a long plane ride but don't get your hopes up for the content.
