 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.

A tapestry of characters make for an interesting story. Having previously read the book, I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting the story, history and characters and loved the narrator’s interpretation of the characters.

I love Edward Rutherford, having read The Forest. I think he is a very important writer, however I struggled to listen to this and would prefer to read the book

Good, but would rather read the book!

Edward Rutherfurd didn’t disappoint, as always! Fantastic story line, great historical detail, colorful characters. Great narration too, though I did follow the advice of other readers and did 1.25 speed playback. It was great.

Amazing as always
