RaveUSA TodayFall of Giants is classic Follett. It's long — almost 1,000 pages; it's populated with hundreds of characters whose lives are intertwined; it's set on a tumultuous world stage; it's a good read ... Everything in this novel is oversized, from the scope of history it covers to the characters he creates ... The five families in Fall of Giants— American, English, Welsh, Russian and German — are all affected by what's happening worldwide, of course, but Follett takes the readers into their everyday lives... In addition to world wars and revolutions, Follett gives women's suffrage considerable ink since it was one of the major movements of the early part of the century.
