when I was in the 11th, 12th. I wouldn't read them now.
Back then I'd read most of his books, leaving out maybe a few.
when I started, I found them way too interesting. Infact I loved the other side of midnight and its sequel. also tell me your dreams. then I sort of grew out of them, and started to find each one like the next.
but yes, I did enjoy them at one time.
I am ungrateful to these teachers.

You can't call me Sidney Sheldon fan, but I have read Rage of Angels, Windmills of the Gods, and flipped through Nothing Lasts Forever.

His stories are very thrilling, they're not going to end up on any school's reading list but it's a good way to pass a few hours (or days). I started reading them in high school but stopped after a year or two.. but now enuff time has passed and im starting to read them again..

If time is not real, then the dividing line between this world and eternity, between suffering and bliss, between good and evil, is also an illusion.

I have read almost all of his novels. I wont mention here the ones that I liked but instead I will mention the only one that I didnt like. I think, "Doomsday Conspiracy" was a bit childish for Sheldon's standards.
I think i would have liked this book more if it was writen by someone else e.g. Brian Lumley but from writers like Sheldon I expected more realistic and near to life story.
I think Rage of Angels and Master of the game are among his best books.
"It's one of the gods of Africa, It holds the power of life and death. An elephant can kill you. A lion or leopard can kill you. And a mamba can kill you. But with a mamba bite, since the dawn of time, it's sure. It is death incarnate."

Master of the game is an excellent book. I loved the way as the story moved from one generation to the other. His story usually revolves around strong and inspiring female characters.

Just read one of his books: "Windmills of God". It was quite a thriller!
