cathyli116 's review for:
The Evening and the Morning
by Ken Follett
3.5/5
Maybe it's my fault for binge-reading the entire Kingsbridge series in a few weeks, but I am thoroughly fed up with Follett's characters, plots and prose. To put it simply, Follett is a one-trick pony. It's even difficult writing my individual review for each book in the series because of their similar content. It seems that Follett merely takes the same cast of characters and plot points and transposes them into a new historical period. Admittedly, he is amazing at this: his books are a rich tapestry of thrilling moments and historical details, which always manage to entertain. However, I'm tired of reading the same book, and I'm unfortunately ending my Kingsbridge journey with a lower opinion of Follett than I started.
