Thank you for writing two of the most exhilarating novels I have ever had the pleasure of reading. ‘Pillars of the Earth’ gripped me from the turn of the first page until the last. 'Pillars' was bought for me by my wife as a gift and I have to thank her for that. ‘World Without End’, well what a fantastic sequel! Throughout both books I felt as if I knew the characters personally and to follow the twists, turns, happiness and hardship.
Once again thank you!

I've been dedicating myself to substitute reading for the other vices of today -- mainly television and rental movies. Your books are among the brightest reads I've had since undertaking this mission. I enjoyed 'Third Twin' but was really enthralled with 'Dangerous Fortune.' I'm looking forward to hunting out your name for my future readings. Thank you for enjoyable and stimulating evenings!

Thought you'd like to know that both ‘Pillars’ and ‘World’ have been so popular around here that we're using them as a base for a class on medieval England, taught through a lifelong-learning institute affiliated with our local university

Currently reading ‘World Without End’ and absolutely loving it. I haven't read ‘Pillars’ yet... I'll start that as soon as I finish ‘WWE’. I have no idea how you write such incredibly long and fascinating stories, it's a true gift. You have a lot of insight for a mere male (smile).
Keep writing.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed reading ‘Pillars of the Earth ‘and ‘World without End.’ Great books -- not my usual reading material but I could hardly put them down. Truly inspired writing. Thank you.

The first book held me spellbound! Thank you for sharing your gift with the world!

A simple ‘thank you’. I read diversely but crave those periods where I find a book that I relish getting back to, am anxious to see what happens next, and am disappointed when it ends. I have read most of your novels and they for the most part deliver that joy to me. Again, thank you.

I am reading ‘Eye of the Needle’ at the present. It is for the 4th time! I have the movie, and have watched it 2 or 3 times. Donald Sutherland did a nice job, but there is nothing like the printed page. I just wanted to applaud your writing skills. You have given me a lot of pleasure. Thank you very much.

I was absolutely blown away by your books. It is not actually 'my kind of book' at all, but when I saw Oprah discuss 'Pillars', I thought -- let me give it a try. I struggled at first, but my husband told me to push through – oh my word, am I glad that I did! I loved 'World Without End' even more – and usually a sequel is not as good as the first one – but my, oh my – unforgettable!

I just closed the back cover on ‘World Without End’ I NEED MORE. Last month, a retired librarian recommended ‘Pillars of the Earth’ and I read it ... lived it. Then I had to get ‘World Without End’ – reserved it at the library & gobbled it up. You are truly the BEST author I've read and now I've resolve to begin a journey through all of your works. I've never written to an author before, but I had to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the memorable journey I've had through old England for the past month.
BTW: I can't choose which of the two I liked better.
