Master of the Game:A review

I just completed reading this book by Sidney Sheldon and I thought about writing something about it.Let me start by telling that this is compulsively readable.Though the book is some 500 pages but then,at no point do you feel that the story is unnecessarily drawn.

The story is about 4 generartions...the characters are fictional but the bakground is real...and each generation is decribed in detail and has been done fulll justice.

I would not like to tell you anything much about the story but that this story is about acquisition of power and retention of the same thing.It vividly pictures the ruthlessness of the men in bussiness and a woman making her way through to expand and save the dynasty.The story is about the dirty game of power and the murders and deceptions by the protagonist Kate Blackwell and her grand-daughter Eve.In short its about the McGregor's building "it" and the Blackwell's preserving "it".

In short,a must must read.For more info about the book click here.
