Edge of Eternity by Ken Follett
1.0
I really enjoyed this trilogy, until the second half of this, the last installment. Follett either so wants to be American or is ruthlessly chasing the American market. Even though there are lots of British characters, they've either moved to America or they've been written out of the story, just as the whole of British history in the 70's and 80's. Punk, the Falklands, Thatcher, even the miners strike for goodness sake, given that the story starts underneath the ground in a coal mine....!!!
The last 200 pages seems to have been rushed, almost like the author couldn't work out how bring this mammoth narrative to a conclusion, or he's fallen out of love with the project. Or both. I actually started skim reading the pages, something I never do.
