Fall of Giants audiobook – Century Trilogy, Book 1

As the morning sun filtered through my bedroom window, I immersed myself in the captivating world of Fall of Giants audiobook by Ken Follett. With a warm cup of tea in hand, I found myself transported to a different era, where the rise and fall of superpowers shaped the course of history.

The novel follows five interconnected families as they navigate through the turbulent events of the 20th century. From the Russian revolution to the First World War, Ken Follett masterfully weaves together historical events with personal narratives. It’s a delicate balance that keeps the story informative without losing its essence as a novel.

What sets Fall of Giants apart is its ability to steer clear from political controversies. Instead, it focuses on how these historical events impact the lives and businesses of our characters. This approach allows readers to experience history through their eyes, creating a deeper connection to the story.

Narrated by John Lee, the audiobook maintains a calm and steady pace throughout. Lee’s narration perfectly complements Follett’s writing style, bringing out the nuances and intricacies of each character’s journey. There are no dramatic turns or sudden revelations here; instead, it is an informative and well-presented narrative that keeps you engaged from start to finish.

If you’re looking for more gripping novels to dive into, I highly recommend checking out The Harvest Man (Murder Squad Book 4) by Alex Grecian and The Killing Forest (Louise Rick Book 7) by Sara Blaedel.
