Un lugar llamado libertad es una obra apasionante, una trepidante novela de acción, donde brilla el talento narrativo de uno de los autores más reconocidos de nuestro tiempo, Ken Follett. Ser minero del carbón en la Escocia del siglo XVIII significaba servidumbre y sufrimiento. Por eso Mack McAsh se enfrentó a su amo, lo que le obligó a huir. Para el joven comenzó una odisea, que le llevó a Londres y luego a las colonias de América del Norte, convertidas más que nunca en esperanza de libertad. Bajo el ropaje de una trepidante novela de acción en la que afloran los mejores sentimientos -el amor, la generosidad, la entrega a los otros-, Un lugar llamado libertad es una obra apasionante donde brilla el talento narrativo de uno de los autores más reconocidos de nuestro tiempo. Reseña: «Un ritmo endemoniado.» ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Scotland, 1766. Sentenced to a life of misery in the brutal coal mines, twenty-one-year-old Mack McAsh hungers for escape. His only ally: the beautiful, highborn Lizzie Hallim, who is trapped in her own kind of hell. Though separated by politics and position, these two restless young people are bound by their passionate search for a place called freedom. From the teeming streets of London to the infernal hold of a slave ship to a sprawling Virginia plantation, Ken Follett's turbulent, unforgettable novel of liberty and revolution brings together a vivid cast of heroes and villains, lovers and rebels, hypocrites and hell-raisers—all propelled by destiny toward an epic struggle that will change their lives forever. Praise for A Place Called Freedom "Gripping . . . a very entertaining tale."—Chicago Tribune "Compelling."—San Francisco Chronicle "Quick-paced."—New York Daily News "An altogether entertaining reading experience."—Minneapolis Star Tribune New York Daily News
