It's so complex that it stands up to many readings and stays interesting and fresh. Have you read the sequel -- World Without End? It's not quite as engaging but there's the same sense of sweeping drama and intense character studyAli Wattshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09300578151180859559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5345948308406299194.post-28867119393791490562010-09-13T12:01:41.588-04:002010-09-13T12:01:41.588-04:00Sounds like a wonderful book.
