About this listen

 A wonderful, epic story that tells the history of the greatest city in the world, from Roman times to the present day from the author of Paris, Sarum and New York.

London has perhaps the most remarkable history of any city in the world. Now its story has a unique voice. In this epic novel Edward Rutherfurd takes the reader on a magnificent journey across sixteen centuries from the days of the Romans to the Victorian engineers of Tower Bridge and the era dockland development of the modern day. Through the lives and adventures of his colourful cast of characters he brings all the richness of London's past unforgettably to life.

I read Sarum a year or two ago and thought I would try London. I am so glad I did. The story of the people and place are so beautifully interwoven. It makes you realise how much don’t know bout our own stories.

Wonderful story, beautifully told
