The Pillars of the Earth tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known . . . of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect - a man divided in his soul . . . of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame . . . and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state, and brother against brother.

A spellbinding, epic tale of ambition, anarchy and absolute power, set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follett's classic historical masterpiece. --back cover
