SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * An oppressed young man longing for a better life must decide how much he is willing to sacrifice for true freedom--a "gripping" ( Chicago Tribune ) novel from the award-winning author of The Pillars of the Earth. "An altogether entertaining reading experience."-- Minneapolis Star Tribune Scotland, 1766. Sentenced to a life of misery in the brutal coal mines, twenty-one-year-old Mack McAsh hungers for escape. His only ally: the beautiful, highborn Lizzie Hallim, who is trapped in her own kind of hell. Though separated by politics and position, these two restless young people are bound by their passionate search for a place called freedom. From the teeming streets of London to the infernal hold of a slave ship to a sprawling Virginia plantation, Ken Follett's turbulent, unforgettable novel of liberty and revolution brings together a vivid cast of heroes and villains, lovers and rebels, hypocrites and hell-raisers--all propelled by destiny toward an epic struggle that will change their lives forever., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Scotland, 1766.

Another great historical fiction tale by Follett
I really enjoy Follett's historical fiction and he is a great storyteller. It is a fun way to learn a lot of factual history. I would rate most of his books at a 4 - 5 star, although he has had a couple of duds. He also has a tremendous amount of diversity in the story lines Not a formula author. A Place Called Freedom is definitely equal to his other great stories.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It speaks for itself.
I think it is one of Ken Follett's better books. His sense of time and place transport the reader into another world. The characters are three dimensional and easily related to because they have their faults and frailties just like the rest of us. I enjoy his writing style and I marvel at the number of characters he handles with dexterity. I am also a writer and I appreciate the hard work that goes into such a novel. I really don't have any negative comments to make about this very enjoyable novel. It is an excellent example of historical fiction. The "blurb" on the back cover describes it perfectly: "From the dirt and danger of a coal mine to the glittering chandeliers of a palace, from the corridors of power and to the bedrooms of the mighty, this book takes us into the entangled fates of five families--and into a century that we thought we knew, but that now will never seem the same again." (I shortened this description a little bit.)Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
