One of the better works of historical fiction. The cathedral is just a mechanism for a story of heavy politcal intrigue during the 11th century. (church, state, feudal system, etc.)

The down side is the sequel, World without End, is a whopping 17.99, the price set by the publisher, Penguin. I was ready to buy both books for 6.99, as it is, I'll pass on both. I don't mind a few dollars over the 9.99 ceiling, but 17.99, is just gouging. I wouldn't blame someone for passing on Pillars at 6.99 to avoid wanting the sequel at 17.99.
