Fall of Giants by Ken Follett
4.0

As a lover of historical fiction, I am embarrassed to admit that this is my first Ken Follett book. It's intimidating in size, but very hard to put down. I was pretty knowledgeable about WWI, but this novel really gave me a much better understanding of the nuances of the issues in Europe. There are a lot of characters and there is a helpful character index at the beginning. Fortunately, I never needed to refer to it because the characters were developed so well it was easy to keep track. I can't wait to read the next 2 novels in the trilogy.
