I have. As a matter of fact, one of his books titled The Pillars of the Earth is probably my favorite book. He is a predominantly a thriller writer, but The Pillars of the Earth is not a thriller. It is a book of over a thousand pages and I think it is blooming fantastic  . As a matter of fact, it is the only Ken Follet book I have read (as he mostly writes thrillers and I don't usually go for thrillers).

@ Krested, Is there any reason why you wanted to know if anyone has read Ken Follet'e books?

Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters
Great book about Lesbianism in the 19th Century

The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett.
This is a brilliant book

@ Oriki kekere,
^{Yawning over and over}. The diseased rantings of the delusional rat continue. The un-sung self-styled "writer and preacher extraordinaire" continues to sing his own praises in the absence of anyone doing it for him. He goes on and on, and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on,  and on[b]. . .

@ Orikinla Yadayadayada, and on and on until night falls ^[Yawns]. Your incredible arrogance flows in your writing once again.

Orikinla:
Jesus Christ said, nobody lights a candle and keeps it under the bushel, but you put it on a candlestick to give light to the whole room.
As a man thinketh so he is.
You remember why the Jews called him names and crucified him?
They said he claimed to be what he is not.
But where are his accusers today?
You want to join them where they are?

I am really laughing hard right now. You must think yourself really special to compare 'your accuser' to Christ's accusers.
F.Y.I., I have actually read a lot of writings of Abati, Soyinka and Achebe and I have met the 1st two. Reuben was actually in my class. But that is beside the point. I don't care how many postings or writings you may have. If you don't know it by now, let me educate you a little QUALITY SUPERCEDES QUANTITY. I'm sure you'll refer me to your works so that I can see the "quality". Don't waste your energy because I have no intention of doing that.

As regards Oriki, I am shaking my head in disbelief. You have just shown yourself up by displaying your "Intellectual illiteracy" and "Intellectual ignorance". Rule number 1 mate, never assume what you don't know. Rule number 2, never underestimate anyone.

Just so you know, I was not "accusing" you. I was just letting you know what I thought. Now that I know that you don't take criticism well, I'll lay off. I won't be joining issues with you after this.

Anyhow, I'll leave you to continue singing your own praises. Afterall nobody else is doing it for you [Hahahaha].
