   Is fall of Giants A 'Century Trilogy'?

   • Fall of Giants is the first in a proposed “Century Trilogy.” It is an ambitious undertaking, I’ll grant, and I’d be far more excited if a different author’s name was above the lame, innocuous title. Instead, there are at least 2,000 more pages of inanities to come. [Cue Ken Follett’s accountant planning a new addition to his house].

   Is the Giants and the Joneses a retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk?

   • The Giants and the Joneses is a retelling (of sorts) of Jack and the Beanstalk. It has its own unique Grolish language which is translated in the back of the book. A little too frightening for small kids and not the best of retellings, but a quick, imaginative story nonetheless.
