![]() I will say that there’s no equivalent to Prior Philip in this book, and I missed him. I feel like I could seriously make a list of characters from each book and match most of them to their equivalents in the other. Most of the main characters felt like the same people from Pillars with their names changed. As it is, I did honestly enjoy it, but coming only a year after reading Pillars, the stories and characters were too similar for me to feel like rating it higher. Had I read this on its own, or even after the 20 years between the publication of Pillars and World, I would probably have enjoyed it more. I don’t want to say too much about the twists and turns the plot follows, so I’ll just say that the book is the story of a generation of townspeople and what life in the mid-14th century might have been like. ![]() Set a couple of hundred years after The Pillars of the Earth, World Without End picks up the story of the town of Kingsbridge. ![]()
