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.
brilliant - By: b.lops, 03 Jan 2008 Part of me hates to admit it but this is a fantastic story, read it many years ago & still remember it. When others describe something as a 'cracking read' I think this is what they mean. Good for someone who doesn't read a lot even though it's lengthy, the story is so well told & always interesting.
A modern classic - By: B. J. Madeley, 03 Dec 2007 Considering that I am not normallly a fan of Jeffrey Archer novels, I was amazed & delighted to find that Kane & Abel was one of the greatest books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. This story gripped me from beggining to end.
The novel spans a lifetime, following the main character's from childhood to old age. Two men from very different backgrounds & cultures, both powered by ambition, cunning & intellect, each rises to fame & fortune. They come together to save & destroy each other in an epic tale of passion, hatred & respect.
Overalll I found this to be a book that I could not put down from the moment I read the first line. It is a story that I enjoyed so much I have re-read it on more than one occasion & i'm sure I will again! It is highly recommended.
fantastic story - By: love reading, 04 Nov 2007 
I read this book years ago & couldn't put it down. I still remember the story. I would have always said it was one of my alll time favourites even although I know that Archer isn't rated as a writer. I have to say though that I tried to read it recently & didn't like it nearly as well because it is alll a bit far-fetched & unbelievable. Probably a great choice for a young or reluctant reader.
Totally engrossing - By: N. Sharpe, 11 Sep 2007 I started reading this book yesterday, having read it many years ago.
It's hard to put the book down because the storyline is so good.
A must-read for any person, including novice readers
