I have read everything he's ever written. He's my favourite author by a million miles! I have every single one of his books on my bookshelf and I'm halfway through his latest, 'The Armour of Light.' The reason he's sold so many books is because he is so talented and tells wonderful stories. By the way - he spells properly in BRITISH ENGLISH! Well done, Ken.

@isabelstokes4042 As a foreigner who wants to practice English, Mr Follet spelling in British English is something I miss in other books. Maybe I've been sourcing books in the wrong place but most are in American English, which is not what I want and its rather disappointing.

@TioDeive I absolutely agree. I hate American English, and it's fabulous to read something that's written properly. If American spelling had evolved naturally, then that's fine, but it didn't. Mr Noah Webster, an alleged linguist, woke up one morning and decided to butcher the functional spelling we had already. Yes, I know English is a bit crazy, but he didn't change the crazy ones, just altered the others for no good reason. Sadly, due to popular culture, American English is now dominant the world over.

Thanks a lot for this interview. In my younger years I read a lot of books and no other author spoke to me more than Ken Follett when it got to well written suspenseful thrillers. He was and probably still is my most read single author. The man from St Petersburg is the one I remember liking the most. Can still replay several passages in my mind despite it being 40+ years, since I first read it. Very nicely designed cover by Adrian Purkis on the first Swedish edition from 1982 which I still cherish. Great translation even if I soon after that began getting the English editions instead. What an initial run it was with Eye of the needle, Triple, The key to Rebecca and then The man from St Petersburg. No wonder I got hooked as a teenager.

*MY FIRST BOOK* took me 5 hours a day, 6 days a week for 18 months - and then the editor threw 65% of it in the bin and reduced it from 300,000 words to 100k and make it WAY better. When I got my first Amazon review and it was 5* and glowing I cried my eyes out and it took me a year to stop crying at the reviews - me, the dyslexic kid who could not read or write at 13, the kid who took 5 attempts to pass his English "O" Level had written a book and people LIKED IT. The key is dedication and consistency - write 1000 words a day no excuses was my mantra.

The Pillars of the Earth was my first Follet book and it is truly astonishing, utterly astonishing. I'm an author myself now and actually, his books are extremely formulaic, he found a formula people like and has repeated it again and again, but what sets him apart is the vast amount of research he does into every scenario. A lesser author you would notice the formula after two books and quickly get bored.

And then this guy from Britain writes a novel about the buildings I loved! I couldn't believe it. It was so cool to see in a novel the details of medieval construction that I'd learned in John Fitchen's book. And to read a great story. Long may Follett flourish.

Ok. And yes, I knew about the new Charlie And The Chocolate Factory movie although I understand Timothee's movie is approaching the story from a completely new viewpoint (Willy Wonka before he opened the factory) - essentially creating a new story quite different from the book which is interesting. Johnny Depp also made a C&TCF movie and way back in the 70's Gene Wilder made a C&TCF, both of those movies are more closely based on Roald Dahl's original story from the book.@@MeiraHorowitz

His plots were great and his characters were okay. Feel like he's one of the best at thriller style novels set in a mostly historically accurate setting. He definitely chose plot convenience over historical accuracy when the two clashed though which presumably helped sell copies whilst annoying historical pedants! Still, an easy read while learning about medieval churches was neat and definitely unique. Thanks Follet!

I am in no way criticising, quite the opposite, to having a super basic formula that gripping, yet no one notices and to repeat it for 40 books is astonishing. I'm writing my first fictional novel and I hope to be able to emulate the level of research he puts in. Follet taught me world building is everything...

This is the Wartime Broadcasting Service. This country has been attacked with nuclear weapons. Communications have been severely disrupted, and the number of casualties and the extent of the damage are not yet known. We shall bring you further information as soon as possible. Meanwhile, stay tuned to this wavelength, stay calm and stay in your own house. Remember there is nothing to be gained by trying to get away. By leaving your homes you could be exposing yourself to greater danger. If you leave, you may find yourself without food, without water, without accommodation and without protection. Radioactive fall-out, which follows a nuclear explosion, is many times more dangerous if you are directly exposed to it in the open. Roofs and walls offer substantial protection. The safest place is indoors. Make sure gas and other fuel supplies are turned off and that all fires are extinguished. If mains water is available, this can be used for fire-fighting. You should also refill all your containers for drinking water after the fires have been put out, because the mains water supply may not be available for very long. Water must not be used for flushing lavatories: until you are told that lavatories may be used again, other toilet arrangements must be made. Use your water only for essential drinking and cooking purposes. Water means life. Don't waste it. Make your food stocks last: ration your supply, because it may have to last for 14 days or more. If you have fresh food in the house, use this first to avoid wasting it: food in tins will keep. If you live in an area where a fall-out warning has been given, stay in your fall-out room until you are told it is safe to come out. When the immediate danger has passed the sirens will sound a steady note. The "all clear" message will also be given on this wavelength. If you leave the fall-out room to go to the lavatory or replenish food or water supplies, do not remain outside the room for a minute longer than is necessary. Do not, in any circumstances, go outside the house. Radioactive fall-out can kill. You cannot see it or feel it, but it is there. If you go outside, you will bring danger to your family and you may die. Stay in your fall-out room until you are told it is safe to come out or you hear the "all clear" on the sirens. Here are the main points again: Stay in your own homes, and if you live in an area where a fall-out warning has been given stay in your fall-out room, until you are told it is safe to come out. The message that the immediate danger has passed will be given by the sirens and repeated on this wavelength. Make sure that the gas and all fuel supplies are turned off and that all fires are extinguished. Water must be rationed, and used only for essential drinking and cooking purposes. It must not be used for flushing lavatories. Ration your food supply-it may have to last for 14 days or more. We shall be on the air every hour, on the hour. Stay tuned to this wavelength, but switch your radios off now to save your batteries. That is the end of this broadcast.

I’m so glad I don’t have the talent or desire to become a writer. It is such a lottery. Most authors don’t get published. The majority of published books don’t make money. Unless you can become a Follett or Patterson it is really hard to make any money writing. I play a major role in publishing. I purchase and read books. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

As with any creative endeavor, its not about the money, its about the process. Fortunately, with self-publishing and kindle, one has more control of their creative output.

the total carbon footprint of the publishing industry at 12.4 million metric tons CO2 equivalents for the 4.15 billion books produced in the U.S. in 2006, or, around 3 kg CO2 equivalent per book. You should listen to books on your phone instead.

There are SO many more damaging things in this world - including your phone. Reading a physical book is one of life's great joys. Not something you can say about your phone.

Poor BBC. Always stuck for news. I expect he managed to sell 200 million books because 200 million people bought them. That appears to be the most likely reason.

It’s actually more likely that it was considerably fewer than 200 million people buying the 200 million books.

The man from St.Petersburg is the worst book I have ever read. I read it just because I had nothing to do at the airport and aboard the plane. Graphomania it is called. Sorry.
