Anything Goes discussion

what do you think of his writing style? what do you think of his books?
lets discuss

I wasn't thrilled by Follett. He was too detailed when describing horrible things in The Pillars of the Earth, at least for my taste. And the book started out well enough, but it eventually started to read like a formula: trouble, rinse, repeat.

Here's my review if anyone is interested:

I've read three books by Ken Follett;
The Key to Rebecca,
World Without End and
The Pillars of the Earth
and found them all compulsive and entertaining. The descriptions are a tad graphic but I didn't find them over the top!
