Column of Fire Cover (GalleyCat)Viking, a Penguin Random House imprint, announced plans to publish a new novel by Ken Follett. He has been working on the third book in the Kingsbridge series, A Column of Fire.

The previous two installments of Follett’s epic historical fiction series includes The Pillars of the Earth (1989) and World Without End (2007). The publisher will release book three on September 12, 2017.

Here’s more from the press release: “A Column of Fire begins in 1558 where the ancient stones of Kingsbridge Cathedral look down on a city torn apart by religious conflict. As power in England shifts precariously between Catholics and Protestants, high principles clash bloodily with friendship, loyalty, and love.”
