Just finished _World with End_ by Ken Follett. Phew.. that is a long book. It took me about a month to read it since I don't spend a lot of time reading every day. I rated this one 4 stars on my LibraryThing account. Just .5 star lower than _The Pillars of the Earth_.

This one had the great settings of the first and also good character development. I did like that it the characters are not as clear cut as in TPOTE... the protagonists weren't perfect and the antagonists weren't pure evil.

I know I will be reading more of Ken Follett now.

Next though I think might be _The Stand_ by Steve King. I have read some books by King but never this one. A lot of people I talk to tell me this is one of the best if not his best.

Yes, it is another LONG book. What do i have with these?
