Brilliant!
This trilogy has educated me to an era which I had little knowledge and kept me up listening in the wee hours! I enjoyed them so much and the narrator was brilliant too.

FANTASTIC
Ken has done it again! A great way to remember history I so enjoyed it. While listening I used google maps to look at Cadiz, Seville and other places mentioned, and loosed at images. All made the history come to life. Thank you Mr Follett.

Great historical drama
Well read with empathy and good characterisation. Easy to maintain connection with a large number of characters over a long period of time.

Wonderful lesson in history
How I wish Richard E Grant had been the narrator, his extraordinary talent brought 2 previous novels to life unlike the unnatural stilted, clipped and weird reading habit of John Lee so irritating that I cannot listen to any audible books read by him.
