A Dangerous Fortuneby Ken Follett |
Dale Israel: To all of you lovers of Pillars
of the Earth and World Without End...listen up! This book may
not be quite as good as "Pillars" or "World," but it's the
closet thing to it and I loved it almost as much. "A Dangerous
Fortune," which is one of Follett's earlier books, takes place
in the mid-1800's in England. A tragedy takes place at a boarding
school when a student mysteriously drowns. This is the beginning
of years of treachery that impacts the lives of so many people.
There's greed, lust, and murder...what could be better? This
is an old fashion family saga that grabs you from the very
beginning and keeps your attention until the very last page.
Even if this isn't the greatest literature ever written,
I'm giving "A Dangerous Fortune" a 5 star rating because this
book does everything a good book should: it was entertaining
and provided hours of pleasure. I simply couldn't put it down!
Rating: *****
