Ken Follett has written a total of 29 books that I know of.Other than the Century Triolgy and Pillars of the Earth with World Without End as a sequel to it - the question is are the rest of his books standalone reads or are they a series that can be read in sequence.If so can you advise me I'm thinking they are standalone but if they are or some if the are a series or sequels connected to them I much prefer to read from first to last.

Anybody out there in blurbal world ?

Mainly standalones, that are very different to the 2 series you have read (they're thrillers). Plus these 2 series:

Apples Carstairs series (as Simon Myles)

The Big Needle (1974) (a.k.a. The Big Apple – U.S.)
The Big Black (1974)
The Big Hit (1975)

Piers Roper series

The Shakeout (1975)
The Bear Raid (1976)
