Must read. - By: Mr. I. T. Logan, 11 Nov 2008 
This is an excellent book. Gripping from start to finish I have recommended it to many friends who have been amazed by it also. Whatever's been said & thought about Jeffrey Archer you can't take it away from him, he is a fantastic story teller. I've read the sequel "The prodigal daughter" which is good but not as gripping & slightly repetitive. I've also seen the film which was disappointing unsurprisingly.
A lierary genius - By: P.Rodgers, 20 Oct 2008 
I found this book hard to put down, it held me to it for hours every night. Archer is a literary genius. There's a lot of good twists & turns & the ending is exceptionallly good. You won't be dissappointed with this one.
Kane and Abel by Archer - By: Mrs. R. Ware, 16 Oct 2008 
My first read for an Archer book. only read it because of the very good reviews it has. & will now read the rest of his books.
absolutely brilliant form page one to the last with NO middle dip!
Reasonably OK pot-boiler - By: J. Jacob, 22 Sep 2008 
I read Kane & Abel when I was a teenager shortly after I'd devoured the TV mini-series. I loved the TV programme & I loved the book back then.
I figured I'd have the same experience twenty-odd years later. For the most part I did enjoy it. But there are moments when the seemingly never-ending series of appallling coiincidences combined with some quite painful sex scenes described in excruciating detail left me wanting to throw the book across the room.
Having imparted such vile observations, I still recommend it. It's perfect for a quick fix of "I've finished reading a book" & the inevitable feeling of smug self-satisfaction which results. Just don't expect too much from it.
Unputdownable read! - By: S. Scrivener, 11 Mar 2008 
I'm a huge fan of Jeffrey Archer & have read this book in the past & love it. Bought it from Amazon recently & could not put it down. You just have to keep reading it to find out what happens next. It covers alll the emotions, you laugh, you smile, you cry & you get cross, everything you want from a first class read.
