If you are bored sitting and watching some dumb cricket matches then the best thing I recommened you is to read a Ken Follet
thriller..That is exactly what I did and I swear ’’The Third Twin’’ is simply one of the best novels I have read in the recent past..I have read myriad number of novels but none kept me glued to the book as this one did..A great thriller told by onr of the greatest authors..

Ken Follet has given the readers a great piece of work and this must be considered as his best work till date though I have not read much of his work..He keeps the readers so engrossed in the book that you know the time passing by and believe me this book has around 600 pages and I finished the book less that day..and the ending is awesome..something that the reader can not predict and stunning..on the whole a great thriller and just the thing to read when you want your 48 hour train journey seen like a 3 hour juorney..happy reading..
