Absolutely the best!!! - By: Mr. Faisal Yusuf Lawal, 09 Oct 2008 
have read this book several times & it always has thesame effect on me inspite of the familiarity. i fell in love with alll of his characters, even the bad ones. couldn't help it because he made them so real & inetresting. this book is definitely one of his best if not 'the best'. although 'rage of angels' was spectacular & 'nothing lasts forever'was absolutely incredible. hell!, alll his books are fantastic! A big shame he's dead. R.I.P SIDNEY, WE WILL MISS YOUR WORK.
one of the best books i have ever read - By: M. Reynolds, 03 Jan 2008 from start to finish i suggest you take a few days off of your life to read this because you will totallly lose yourself in its pages, i read this every few years & still get upset to finish it, i envy anyone reading this book for the first time, i truly do.
Amazing!!! - By: C. HUTCHINSON, 29 Nov 2006 This is possibly my favourite book of alll time! Having seen the tv mini series as a child i decided to read the book & see if it was as good as i remembered it! It was! Twists turns, characters to love & hate! sheldon at his creative best! A must for sheldon fans & a great starting point for those who are thinking of givin him a go!
A great read - By: Vijay Harsiyani, 27 Sep 2006 The book starts very well building a great foundation for the rest of the story. It follows the trials & tribulations of 4 generations of the McGregor/Blackwell family telling their story of poverty to unthinkable wealth & the problems this caused. The book flows seemlessly primarily due to Sheldon's fantastic storytelling style. The descriptions are just right & to the point. Sheldon has a reallly great nack of helping the reader visualise his characters very quickly with some very clever writing. I reallly could not put this book down & I can say that I am hooked on Sidney Sheldon books.
A beautiful story - By: Sancho Mahle, 28 Jun 2005 I fell completely in love for the first time with Sheldon's style of writing with MASTER OF THE GAME. It is a beautiful piece of saga full of characters that are movers of the movers & the spices of survival. Human emotions are succinctly dissected, emotions that range from hatred, love, anger, jealousy, lust, etc, & when combined with the beautiful story line brought out such a beautiful story. Reading the older Sheldon novels merely confirmed my belief that he is a great writer.
This book attracted me to other sagas that are centered on a strong family legacy such as DISCIPLES OF FORTUNE,THE GODFATHER, KANE AND ABEL, TRIPLE AGENT. I am looking forward any time to other new works by Sidney Sheldon.
