Winter of the World by Ken Follett picks up right where Fall of Giants book left off—English,
Welsh, German, Russian, and American—who live through some of the major world-events from
1933 to 1949. Rife with plot lines, interpersonal intrigue, sweeping historical flourishes, and an
authentic and compelling cast, this is a tale of dynamic characters struggling to survive during one
of the world’s darkest periods. Everything from the burning of the Reichstag to the T4 Euthanesia
program under the Nazis, to the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the battle of Midway to the
development of the atomic bomb is covered.
The main character is Lloyd Williams, who as a toddler ascended the steps of Parliament at the
end of Fall of Giants.He discovers in the crucible of the Spanish Civil War that he must fight
Communism just as hard as Fascism. He also encounters a group of Germans resolved to oppose
Hitler – but are they willing to go so far as to betray their country? At Cambridge Lloyd is
irresistibly drawn to dazzling American socialite Daisy Peshkov, who represents everything his
left-wing family despise.
The audiobook provides in-depth perspectives and describes how people actually felt at the time.
Short paragraphs, and a lot of dialogues between the characters. As always with Ken Follett, the
historical background is brilliantly researched and rendered, the action fast-moving, the characters
rich in nuance and emotion. The brutality of Nazism, the madness of Communism, and the
bloodlust of the War, made every other thing in the book pale in its comparison. Ken Follett is a
master at creating characters that are so colorful and fascinating that I wish I could step into the
book and meet them. I wish that all three books had been released closer together. Highly
recommend.
