About this book

Book Summary

The long-awaited sequel to A Column of Fire, The Armor of Light, heralds a new dawn for Kingsbridge, England, where progress clashes with tradition, class struggles push into every part of society, and war in Europe engulfs the entire continent and beyond.

The Spinning Jenny was invented in 1770, and with that, a new era of manufacturing and industry changed lives everywhere within a generation. A world filled with unrest wrestles for control over this new world order: A mother's husband is killed in a work accident due to negligence; a young woman fights to fund her school for impoverished children; a well-intentioned young man unexpectedly inherits a failing business; one man ruthlessly protects his wealth no matter the cost, all the while war cries are heard from France, as Napoleon sets forth a violent master plan to become emperor of the world. As institutions are challenged and toppled in unprecedented fashion, ripples of change ricochet through our characters' lives as they are left to reckon with the future and a world they must rebuild from the ashes of war.

Over thirty years ago, Ken Follett published his most popular novel, The Pillars of the Earth. Now, with this electrifying addition to the Kingsbridge series we are plunged into the battlefield between compassion and greed, love and hate, progress and tradition. It is through each character that we are given a new perspective to the seismic shifts that shook the world in nineteenth-century Europe.

Media Reviews

"A treat for fans of historical fiction." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Follett is equally adept at portraying the horrors of war and his characters' quiet moments of despair. The result is an impressive and immersive epic." —Publishers Weekly

"This epic canvas holds a mélange of relationships which all work out exactly as they should while Follett brings Kingsbridge up to the Regency era." —Booklist

Filled with Intrigue, Violence, and Sex, This Is an Engrossing Historical Novel
When it comes to life, the one thing you can be sure of is change. This novel by Ken Follett, the fifth in the incredible Kingsbridge series of historical fiction, embraces this adage as the primary theme of the 750-page book.

Taking place from 1792 to 1824 in the fictional English town of Kingsbridge, this is the story of a large cast of characters rich and poor, male and female, young and old at the beginning of the industrial revolution. The story opens with a horrific scene as a beloved husband and father is killed through a wealthy man's negligence and the rippling effect that has on the dead man's survivors.

Among others, we meet:
• Sal Clitheroe is a tough and resourceful widow. She is the mother of 6-year-old Christopher (nicknamed Kit), who is forced to go to work at his young age.
• The wealthy and influential Riddick family. The squire is the old father of three young men, one of whom is evil and one of whom is good.
• The Anglican bishop, his wife Arabella and daughter Elsie. Arabella is much younger than her old husband, and she has a torrid affair that is kept secret…until it can't be suppressed any longer. Elsie is in love with someone who thinks of her as only a friend so she marries another man in haste.
• Amos is a good-hearted man who owns a mill in the town, employing many people. He is madly in love with Jane Midwinter, who spurns him.
• Spade, whose real name is David Shoveller, is a prosperous weaver and a good soul. He is close to his sister Kate, who is the town's premier dressmaker. Kate harbors a big secret that could ruin her reputation and business.
• Jane Midwinter, the daughter of the Methodist minister, is only interested in a lavish, comfortable life, but the marriage she makes to achieve that is fraught with despair and little love.
• Alderman Hornbeam, the requisite bad guy, who values money and his own style of living above all else, isn't afraid to bash others to get what he wants—even if it means hanging them in the public square.

The book is filled with the history of this period, beginning with the invention of the spinning Jenny that radically changed the way cloth was made, transforming it from the labor of individual spinners working alone in their homes to a mechanized process done in a mill. How this invention changed employment, culture, and society is a primary focus of the book, including the rise of worker unions as employees are summarily displaced by technology. The characters embody what is needed to both force and embrace the radical changes that are taking place.

Since lawbreakers in England could join the army to escape prison, the story ends with several of our more nefarious, as well as patriotic, Kingsbridge friends fighting for Britain against Napoleon Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo. If you enjoy war stories, this battle is quite the tale—but not for the squeamish.

Filled with intrigue, violence, love, sex, passion, scandal, and lots of drama, this is an engaging and engrossing book to savor and enjoy. (Even though the last book in this series, you don't have to read the books in order, although each one is special and worth reading.)

Bonus: Find out where the term "Luddite" comes from and how the Luddites had unsuccessfully tried to squash the industrial revolution in England.

it's a shame!
Have read 3 of Follett historical fictions never having read a book with more than 500 pages before. Thoroughly enjoyable and at moments felt I was right there in the moment. I bought his latest historical picture hoping I would become totally engaged as I had with the others. I felt for the first time a weakness in the authors commitment to a story line about such an historic event.

Unlike most of the characters in the book with all their natural flaws and weaknesses I felt a slight betrayal. I quickly looked to the year it was written and then realized the author had caved to the moral and political pressures of today's modern storyline. With that said I thoroughly enjoyed most of the characters and the strength of those brave and resilient characters that go threw life with little fanfare who have played a role in changing shaping history for the good....will be a little more cautious when purchasing another of his novels.
