Kingsbridge audiobooks in order
John Lee reads the cathedral books, and they are vast. The Pillars of the Earth alone runs over forty hours, which makes it one of the best-value titles on the store if you buy with a credit.

Which order should you listen in?
Chronological and publication order disagree here. The Evening and the Morning is a prequel written last, set centuries before the rest. Most readers still start with The Pillars of the Earth — it is the famous one and the prequel lands better afterwards. These are enormous: Pillars alone runs over forty hours.
