Anyone who loved "Pillars of the Earth" would probably like these, but know each book is a minimum of 900 pages.
Thank you for the information on the Martin books. I loved Pillars of the Earth and am reading the trilogy by the same author (Ken Follette) Fall of Giants, now Winter of the World and the third is being written. They are about World War II from the viewpoints of four families one in Russia, Germany, United States and England. Well written and fascinating showing the varying attitudes. Long books too!
