Summary: Who knew angels had it so hard?
Review: Empirically, this was a wonderful, amazing book. Sheldon is a master story teller. There is no doubt that he has the capability to write highly intriguing stories with even more intriguing characters. This book was so engrossing that I couldn't put it down, even to study for my final!
I loved every minute of it up until the end. The thing that's sad is that Jennifer's life is almost entirely made up of overwhelming hardship and struggle, from her torn up childhood to her adulthood where she loses EVERYTHING that's dear to her.
I felt that she deserved a much better life for all the wonderful things she did as a lawyer. Jennifer is the true tragic hero because no matter what she does, she is destined to fall into the depths of failure and despair.
Despite these terrible things, this book was excellent and made for great entertainment. I also learned a lot about how harsh real life is. Readers who read to be rewarded by a happy ending, STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THIS BOOK. As a big advocate of the happy ending, I felt like bursting into tears after finishing this novel. Those of you who are just looking for a good story and can detach yourselves or handle life's devastating disappointments, then by all means, read on!

Summary: A Bit Frustrating
Review: This book was superbly written. The pace was perfect and the characters intriguing. However! I agree with the reviewer who pointed out some of the obvious flaws, such as: the press, mafia, and powerful politician in Jennifer's life would, most certainly, have found out about her son since Jennifer was such a well-known media darling.I thought the ending frankly disappointing. While realistic, it could have been better handled, I think, and not quite so abrupt. I was deeply engrossed in this book and when it ended so negatively it was a major let-down. But, having said that, Mr. Sheldon is certainly a great storyteller and I'm not sorry I read this book.

Summary: The Usual Sidney
Review: The books starts off well with the Sidney's usual - Woman who has nothing to woman has all the power. He uses this story line too much in different contexts and just changing the scenario sometimes doesnt cut it. The character is seriously flawed in that she is Ms Perfect record who can do it all. She is a plainly selfish person but Sidney tries to cover all this up by the emotional and sentimental attachments with the other characters in the book. She sides and helps the Mafia only because of what they will do to her son and not giving a thought to all the lives she is putting at stake by acquitting all sorts of criminals. She is in love with a soon to be president- politician, whom one of the mafia cant identify when he comes in contact with him. Come on! How dumb and un-informed are the mafia? Then there is the fact that no one knows about about her son. Not the Mafia, not the politician who "has been looking everywhere for her" and not the press who are following her every case. The press for Gods sake, the bloodhounds of our species! There are lots of other questions raised that I will not discuss but I still dont see how this book and especially the character can be liked by so many. Only die hard fans and those who have never encountered any of Sidney Sheldons women should read this book.

Summary: Now this is a great book. . . .
Review: Just like the first person's review on this book, this was the first Sidney Sheldon book I read (I picked it up from my friend's MOM!) I thought, looking at the book, New York bestseller. This has to be good. Besides, I've got to start reading books other than fantasy. And so, with this book, I was set onto the road of great contemporary fiction. This book is legendary, with its unforgettable characters, great plot, and extremely solemn, thoughtful ending. If you read, you'll like this book, and my philosiphy is, by books you like. So buy this book. Right now, from Amazon.com Deathsmith "Books are good because they're always there for you. . . because they never go anywhere." Joel Gadica, 2001

Summary: a not quite right ending
Review: Rage of Angels was a very good read, that is until I got to the very end. I thought it was a poor ending that left me frustrated ,and i felt like there should have been more to it. I hate reading a book that leaves you wondering!

Summary: Incredible. I love Sidney.
Review: This is the second book of Sidney that I read. Like my first one 'Bloodline', this is almost the standard definition of a 'Page-turner'. I simply sat at home for hours and read the whole book!!! Probably a lot of people have written about how great this book is, so all I can say is 'Fantastic'.

Summary: a good book. by far the best he ever written
Review: i have read about three or four of his books. all okay but i think this is the best of the lot. since everybody else has basically furnish all the details of the book, i might as well just comment on the book itself. i find that this book is very engaging. the fact is i can understand and appreciate the characters. i like the way he portrays jennifer. the essentially goody-goody girl turn bad and of course, michael. oh, michael. which woman doesn't wish fer someone like michael? he might be a mafia, but he is way, way, wwwwwaaaaaaayyyyy better than the idiot that jennifer shacked up with in the first place. adam or whatever his name was. he was a real wuss, if you ask me, and i think jenny is such and idiot to fall in love with him. oh, but love is blind. too bad, the way i see it he basically ruined her life and he even though he became famous after that, he was a... politician...! what kind of life is that anyway? IMHO, michael moretti is the best thing that ever happened to jenny in a long, long time.i have one grouse though. what ever happened to jennifer now that all the best thing in her life are gone?
