Place Called Freedom

Follett is one of my favorite authors, so of course I enjoyed this. However, this reminded me of a John Jakes novel. Perhaps it's because this takes place before the American Revolution.

Savugirl @Nute I'm sure Mr. Jakes would be pleased to know that he hasn't been forgotten. What was the first time he came up? 4y

Another excellent Ken Follett book, is he capable of writing a bad book! This book left me wanting to keep reading on, anytime I put it down it was for a very short period. You have to eat! š‚ Although almost 600 Pages I gobbled this book up and finished in just over 24 hours. Definitely recommended. A great story with some interesting twists along the way - you end up cheering your favourite characters and hissing at the anti heroes.

Master storyteller, Ken Follett, takes us from the Scottish Highlands to London and onto colonial America with a powerful story of love, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Mack McAsh and Lizzie Hallim are searching for #APlaceCalledFreedom. With well-developed characters and a plot with twists and turns, I found the book unputdownable. Looking forward to my next #KenFollett book. I recommend this one to those who love historical adventure.

A busy month, but I finally got the chance to start A Place Called Freedom by Ken Follett. @EadieB @Tove_Reads

Tove_Reads Sadly, my least fave Follett. Definitely worth reading, but did not live up to my expectations. 5y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads That‘s a shame! 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Starting this book tomorrow. 5y

Tove_Reads @andrew65 I enjoyed it for a few hundred pages, but then the story became predictable and I got a feeling I‘ve read something like this before. 5y

Tove_Reads @EadieB @Andrew65 Had to start somewhere, because we have so many books to read, and we usually start the month with Follett. I could read Hayder/Casey next week. Would that be possible for you? Can you believe I‘m still waiting for

Gun Street Girl: A Detective Sean Duffy Novel

EadieB @Tove_Reads @Andrew65 that‘s fine with me! 5y

Andrew65 Been a very busy work week so not been able to read much since Monday. I would suggest Ken Follett, followed by Hayder. @EadieB @Tove_Reads 5y

Tove_Reads @Andrew65 @EadieB Works for me! I‘ll be away in the national park basically without human contact next week. This Follett is a fast read! 5y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads After all the human contact I‘ve had this week, that sounds heavenly! š‚ @EadieB 5y

Tove_Reads @Andrew65 Tell me about it! I‘m so happy! Forest, sauna, lake, bbq, books... 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Follett followed by Hayden works for me too! @Tove_Reads (edited) 5y

Classic Ken Follett- fast-paced, solid historical fiction. Just what I like on the beach. šI liked the look into coal mining in 1766 Scotland.

This is a fast paced historical fiction novel that travels from the coal mines of Scotland to a tobacco plantation in the colony of Virginia. A quick read, good for the beach! šā€ļø¸š

I am always in awe of how Ken Follett can weave the story around you in such a way that you feel like you are in the room with the characters. So much detail. I love so many of his books, and I'm really enjoying this one.
