World Without End’s prose is very plain, blunt almost. All I can really say is that the other historical fiction I’ve read is more descriptive, immediately immersive. Certainly not enough to have any kind of context or canon to place the book in. Sansom… I guess maybe other odds and sods? Not enough to do more than draw crude connections between what I have read. One thing I’ve realised since making the effort to write down my thoughts is that I haven’t actually read that much historical fiction. At the beginning, I wasn’t convinced by World Without End, I admit.

While I was reading this, I joked far too often that it was Book Without End, hohoho.Ī spoilertastic one – I want to basically just ramble on about this one.
