Fall of Giants by Ken Follett
5.0

One of the best books I've read in a long time. The audiobook is amazing as well. The narrator is top teir.

Its a sprawling story featuring characters from England, Germany, Russia, and the USA, and what they do before, during, and after World War 1. It made me much more interested in the true history of WW1 and the complex political environment that caused it.

If history interests you, this is a good book to read. If you like stories with many fleshed out characters weaving in and out of each other's stories, this is a good book to read. If you're looking for one of the best audiobook presentations available, this is a good book to read. Its the semi-true story of political intrigue that teaches you about the world at that time and keeps you wondering what will happen, even though you know the outcome.

I came into this hesitant because WW1 didn't particularly interest me. Now, I can't stop learning about it.
