Best known today for his exciting blockbuster novels, Sidney Sheldon is the author of The Best Laid Plans, Nothing Lasts Forever, The Stars Shine Down, The Doomsday Conspiracy, Memories of Midnight, The Sands of Time, Windmills of the Gods, If Tomorrow Comes, Master of the Game, Rage of Angels, Bloodline, A Stranger in the Mirror, and The Other Side of Midnight. Almost all have been number-one international bestsellers. His first book, The Naked Face, was acclaimed by the New York Times as "the best first mystery of the year" and received an Edgar Award. Most of his novels have become major feature films or TV miniseries, and there are more than 275 million copies of his books in print throughout the world.
Before he became a novelist, Sidney Sheldon had already won a Tony Award for Broadway's Redhead and an Academy Award for The Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer. He has written the screenplays for twenty-three motion pictures, including Easter Parade (with Judy Garland) and Annie Get Your Gun. In addition, he penned six other Broadway hits and created three long-running television series, including Hart to Hart and I Dream of Jeannie, which he also produced. A writer who has delighted millions with his award-winning plays, movies, novels, and television shows, Sidney Sheldon reigns as one of the most popular storytellers of all time.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2022This book is one of my favorite books of all time. I got it complete and with no pages missing!!! Thank you to the seller🙏🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻👍🏼 I mention this because when I read it the first time(jail), an important page was missing😭😭
This book is the type to entertain the troops if the troops ever decided to read books. It is one hell of a story TOLD in different time space continuums that align within each other to tell you one of the most crispest, richest stories known to man.
It’s been a while since I read it, but I give myself that distance so that it can feel as though I read it for the first time/better understand it.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 15, 2011This book is hard to put down. It's a great read and a fast one. However, it is important to know that this book is abridged - in other words, there are many parts left out. I had originally read this book when it was first published (around 1977), so I had a feeling not everything was in there. One major part left out of this edition is that in the beginning, Toby is forced to leave home for his own safety (having got the daughter of a local policeman pregnant). This part is not mentioned in this edition. It's a great book anyway.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2024It's not missing pages
- Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2012This was an interesting story, but I think it could have been told in about ten or fifteen thousand less words.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2023His books flows easily. Almost seems like it could be a true story. If you read his autobiography, you will realize a lot of the lines used in the book are from real life conversations. Maybe it is a true story.
