Title: Definitely Not "The Eye of the Needle"!
Product review: This is one of the most poorly written fiction books I have had the misfortune to read. The plot seems to be made up as it goes along and keeps falling apart as if Follett is limping towards the finish line of a 200,000 word piece of crap that will weigh enough to sell for $30.Follett struggles to get through scene after scene with descriptions that are so awkward that sometimes you can't envision what the hell is supposed to be happening. He puts in little bits of history such as the "how many" game where people supposedly ate seeded bread after being ask a question like "how many years will it be before I get married?" and count the seeds in their mouth. Who knew? Also we have one character inventing futures contracts out of thin air and another constructing the first felting machine in history. All in 1150! Wow!
