Review: i thought it was every bit as good as Sidney Sheldon ,all the twists and turns in it, the only thing i felt that Keith Webster got killed too quickly, it would have been nice to see a bit more development between him and Eve, (she was a dreadful woman!) maybe if Keith Webster had conti ued being bossy with her, like in the first book, "Master of the game" as he became demanding and peremptory,and then he was all nice as he had been originally, and when he turned nasty, Eve was very submissive.there were a couple of mistakes, Rory in the other book was seeing Eve, not Alexander, (unless he didn't know the difference being twins) and Eve had begged Keith Webster to fix the lines under her eyes. not the other way around. but a few minor things like that dont really matter much, as it was a cracking good read!

Review: As a great fan of Sidney Sheldon and having just read a couple of his books earlier missed, it was with a mix of expectation and sceptisism I picked up "Mistress of the Game". It started out well enough and for a few chapters I felt I was, at least partly, back in that magic world. Then slowly things started to change. Nothing I could quite put my finger on, but something was not quite right and it became more and more obvious. Instead of getting more, I got less interested in the storyline. Nothing which happened surprised me and having not even reached a third of the book, I was at times getting slightly bored. Were all those details necessary.........? The book is not all bad. I did finish it and found it for the most easygoing and relaxing - to pick up for half an hour's read at bed time... But compared to the original Shidney Sheldon works which made me frantically turn pages until the wee hours, it simply could not compete. The thing is, when Sidney Sheldon writes, he never gives more information about the characters than absolutely necessary. No more details of the plot than a minimum to keep the story flowing, often leaving words unwritten since their meaning have already been told, although unsaid. Chapters short and to the point. Every sentence an invitation to hurry on to the next. Fast. Frantic. Unstoppable. Better editing might have helped somewhat but all in all, the idea of having another author, any author, write a sequel to a book - and his masterpiece at that - by a genius like Sidney Sheldon, is in my opinion bound to become a disappointment, not the least to his many and highly devoted admirers. Tilly Bagshawe is a good writer but she is NOT Sidney Sheldon and it shows. There is no carrying on the magic of the Master of the Unexpected and there is surely not much unexpected in this book. Also, with Sidney Sheldon's name so prominently placed on top of the front cover, many readers will undoubtedly be tricked into thinking this is an original manuscript left by the great master himself. They are bound to become disappinted.
