Summary: Spellbinding thriller!
Review: Morning, Noon and Night is another spellbinding thriller from Sheldon. The ending is explosive, with intriguing twists, turns, and subplots along the way. As with all of Sheldon's books, I have to finish them in one day, as I cannot bear to NOT know what the next chapter will bring!

The ending is a shocker, as it is with all of Sheldon's books, with all of the character's "secrets" unraveling and exposed. Sheldon is great at keeping the reader cleverly baited until the very end. Sheldon sort of deviates from his typical strong main heroine character type on this tale and casts his light instead on four heirs to their father's massive fortune, with one of the heirs being illegitimate. Murder, mayhem, revenge, greed, blackmail, and hate all cast their hooks in this one, with some romance thrown in. As usual, the reader gets immediately drawn into the mystery and gets completely knocked off course just when you think you have figured out "who did it"! The action is non-stop!

This book will not disappoint any Sheldon fans and I found it to be one of his best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fast paced - kept me interested til the end!
Review: MORNING, NOON, AND NIGHT is another great book from Sidney Sheldon. The story starts out with the introduction of Harry Stanford, one of the most powerful and richest men in the world. During a cruise on his private yacht he falls over (or is he pushed?) and drowns. His children, who have had little to do with him or each other for a great part of their lives, are now reunited. They come to find out what their father left them, if anything, and they soon discover some shocking news: there is a 4th sibling, Julia, who claims she is an heir to the estate. Do they believe her? Or is she an imposter?

This is one of Sidney Sheldon's better books. I highly recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I am always eager to reach the ending, it's so wonderful
Review: One can never expect the plot from our geniuse writer. Start at a suspense level, reaches a climax, but between it a shocking events of the childrens life and their hatered of their father. So wonderfuly wraped up, he really managed to occupy the readers mind. Congratulations.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderfully executed! A Machiavellian MasterPiece!
Review: Praise must be given to Sidney Sheldon for this. A superbly well-crafted and planned novel of greed, outrage, blackmail, romance, with the usual unexpected twists and turns so famous in his other works. He pinpoints several characters as the culprit, but then throws the reader in totally different directions, never losing track of the story's frantic rhythm. He alternates the quick pace of the suspense with a languid pace in the love scenes which makes this a superb read. I have just finished it for the fourth time today!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Sidnet Sheldon is a legend
Review: Sidney Sheldon is a legend, I read all his novels, they are a masterpiece, Once you started reading a novel, you will never leave it till you finish it, the way he describes the places and the characters is so real, you feel that you a part of the story. If you read for Sidney Sheldon, you will never read for anyone else, (It happened with me). Thanks Sidney, and god bless you

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book!!!!
Review: Sidney Sheldon, the best author in the world, will not disappoint any of his readers with this book. Morning, Noon, and Night is another intriguing, fast-paced thriller. There are innumerable plot twists, and the end is no less shocking. As with most of Sheldon's books, every chapter ended with a cliffhanger, keeping the reader interested in what the next chapter will bring.

This book revolves around a very wealthy and influential family known as the Stanfords. When the father dies, his children, the three heirs to the fortune, are shocked to find that they may have and illegitimate sister with whom they must share their wealth. This family carries out all of the major components of a great action novel: murder, revenge, greed, blackmail, and a splash of romance.

Although shorter than the average Sidney Sheldon novel, Morning Noon and Night has no less an impact. The short nature of the book actually gives it a sense of urgency. A combination of these elements kept me constantly reading. I finished this book in a little more than four hours.

Morning, Noon, and Night is a masterpiece, even for an author as brilliant as sheldon. No Sheldon fan will be disappointed with this work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A twisting version of a billionare's rise and fall!!!
Review: The characters and storyline were very realistic in the sense of people who own a great deal of money. It shows how much envy and jealousy is related in inheiriting billions of dollars and some of the drastic measures it comes down to. Sidney is at his best!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Absurd!
Review: The narrative jumps from one absurdity to the next. Two-thirds in, I tossed it into the trash can. The plot is forced, the characters are contrived, the decisions Tyler makes are unbelievable and naive, especially for a judge who has some inkling of how savy criminals think.

That Julia's mother would never tell her daughter who her father is is another ridiculous assumption. And that no one would question why Margo/Julia would sign away her billion dollar interest in the inheritance to some unknown corporation--and no one would question that?--is beyond even ridiculous.

This book is a super insult to my tiny intelligence. I hope the author will think out his story more effectively in the future. He has a fine talent, but is wasting it by writing super-pulp fiction like this.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A very disappointing read!
Review: The plot is intriguing and rather unpredictable, but the story line has no base and it could have been written by any one. The characterisation was hopeless. Compared to Catherine Douglas, Jennifer Parker, Kate Blackwell who are all strong characters, Julia Stanford was not worth reading about. Don't waste your time on this one!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Sloppy
Review: The plot lacks integrity. There are so many errors that made me wander if the book had been edited at all! Also, I believe that the author should've spent an extra 50-100 pages to better develop characters and settings. Nevertheless, I did enjoy reading the book with its many twists & turns. Mr. Sheldon seems to be a very talanted story teller who just needs a better editor. This was my first Sidney Sheldon book, and it would have been the last except that based on the good reviews that I've read here on Amazon , I'm willing to give his "Master of the Game" or "Rage of Angles" a try.
