ohh I just got this for my holiday reading, glad to hear its good!
Just blew through The Passage (loved this!! Where's part two???) q as recommended 
and Ken Folletts Fall of Giants which was an amazing read!! Now got The Historian waiting on my shelf! But I'm halfway through Paul Hoffmans The Last Four Things which isn't grabbing me like The Left Hand of God did

I have been dithering about getting "Fall of Giants". I absolutely loved Pillars of the Earth and World Without End, and rate them among my all time favourite books .... actually my list of all-time favourites is huge as I'm not good at choosing
but anyway, I've been uncertain about getting Fall of Giants as I read a few negative reviews, although I suspect that they were from people who were just expecting another Pillars of the Earth and because the subject matter is very different were perhaps disappointed? Possibly. It's a theory! I need to wait for it to come out in paperbook or turn up in a 2nd hand book shop and then I'll give it a whirl! Books are HUGELY expensive here in Australia, so mainly I have to be patient and resort to getting them sent over from UK by the BookDepository who ship for free - yayyy!

The Historian is great... I haven't re-read this for ages, but I might just bump it up my list...

On the plus side though I've found a £50 Waterstones voucher, bad side is their ebooks won't work on the Kindle.
Can you not convert them?
And I was gutted when I finished it too....loved it!!

You should be able to convert them. What format are they

They're encrypted with DRM so Calibre can't convert them. I googled it and I can't see anyway around it. I spent the voucher today on 'real' books. It felt really odd but I suppose I can share them with my Nan afterwards which I can't with Kindle.
I soooo prefer Kindle now!

I'm currently reading 'A Clash Of Kings' by George R. R. Martin. The 2nd book in the same series as 'A Game Of Thrones'. Love it! Already have the rest of the books sat waiting for me to read
I did that last year, read them all pretty much back to back! Now I just have to wait for the next one to come out in paperback, which hopefully will be the end of this year as it's due out in hardback next month! They are an excellent read!
