The Evening and the Morning

Ken Follett


The Evening and the Morning is a historical epic that ends where The Pillars of the Earth begins.

It is 997 CE, the end of the Dark Ages. The king’s grip on the country is fragile and chaos reigns.

A young boat builder dreams of a better future after a devastating Viking raid shatters the life he hoped for.

A Norman noblewoman follows her husband to a new land only to find her life there shockingly different; and a capable monk at Shiring Abbey has a vision of transforming his humble home into a centre of learning admired throughout Europe. The Dawn of a New Age.

Now, with England at the dawn of the Middle Ages, these three people will each come into dangerous conflict with a ruthless bishop, who will do anything to increase his wealth and power, in an epic tale of ambition, rivalry, love and hate.
