Summary: my first sheldon-- still the best!
Comment: this was the first Sidney Sheldon book I ever read, at the age of 12 when I was traveling in India with my family. My brother and I wouldn't be quiet, so at a 5 min. stop, my harried mother jumped off the train and came back with this book for me- and I became hooked on Sheldon's amazing storytelling abilities. He paints characters so vividly and his stories are a perfect mix of drama and a great plot with some practical knowledge and a bit of smut mixed in. I always wanted to be one of his heroines- sexy AND smart! You actually get to know the characters and care about what happens to them- and it's not superficial stuff . . . in some ways his writing reminds me of greek myths . . . lots of drama, extremes of wealth and excess and ruin and poignant lessons to be learned . . . Sheldon does have a few books with more surprising plots, but this remains a favorite!

Summary: A true masterpiece....worth every dime
Comment: 'Master of the game' is a novel that has everything a reader looks for in a general fiction book. Love, betrayal, hate, jealousy, poverty, fame, wealth, courage. The book is divided into three parts revolving around three main characters yeilding a beautifully written, well thought out storyline consisting of four generations of a single family. Below is a brief description of the the novel without giving anything away and a justification of why this book is such a good read.
The novel starts out with Jamie McGregor heading to South Africa in search of diamonds. His path to South Africa, his betrayal revenge together his building his empire, his rise to great fame after finding diamonds really appeals to the reader.
Kate Blackwell, Jamie's daughter takes over Jamie's empire. She is that kind of a character whose self-drive, ambitions, power etc.. are vicarously worth loving.She is the master of her game. Her son Tony grows to dislike her and the mind games between mother and son is just too good and keeps the pages turning like no other.
The final part of the book is my favourite. It is for this part alone the book is worth reading. Tony gets two daughters(twins) Eve and Alexandria, one good and one bad and here is where the jealousy starts. One twin is jealous of the other and look to destroy the other. Her plans to destroy the other twin all through her infancy, teenage life is a work of pure genius on the part of Mr. Sheldon.
Trust me, this is a real show-stopper among Sidney Sheldon novels, easily his best(among the ones I've read atleast) and worth the purchase. The plot is superb, the character are the ones you really get the feel off and care about. Worth the buy.
