The first of the century trilogy: The Pillars of the Earth. Utterly staggering (IMO)????

Pillars of the Earth, hands down, without a doubt one of the all time great historical fictions. You won’t be sorry.

Wait, wait, I stand corrected. Pillars of the Earth was the first in the Kingsbridge series. Sorry guys. What can I say, I just got so excited?

Oh, if I really have to pick just one, I’s Say The Key to Rebecca. But A Dangerous Fortune was also amazing. (As they all are.)
