An epic historical novel by Ken Follett and the first book in the Century Trilogy. Spanning the years leading up to and through World War I, the novel follows the intertwined lives of five families from different countries and social classes as they experience one of history's most transformative periods.

From coal miners in Wales and aristocrats in England to diplomats in Germany, revolutionaries in Russia, and political figures in the United States, the characters navigate love, ambition, war, political upheaval, and personal sacrifice. Their lives intersect amid pivotal historical events, including the outbreak of World War I, the Russian Revolution, and the growing movement for women's suffrage.

Meticulously researched and richly detailed, Fall of Giants combines real historical figures with compelling fictional characters to create a sweeping saga of war, family, politics, and social change. It is an ideal blend of history and storytelling.
