In 1989 The Pillars of the Earth was published, and has
since become the author’s most successful novel. It reached number
one on bestseller lists around the world and was an Oprah’s Book
Club pick.
Its sequels, World Without End and A Column of Fire,
proved equally popular, and the Kingsbridge series has sold 38
million copies worldwide.

Between them they have five children, six grandchildren, and three
Labradors.
