Sons of Fortune - Jeffery Archer

One more of Archer's high profile life stories. The story line is strong and interesting. There are surprises in every corner, typical Archer style. Its a story of twin brothers and has everything in it from making of successful people, to banking, politics, drama, emotion. I won't say that its another Kane and Abel but somwhere not far behind from it.

Weak point: The story seems to be reeeeeeeeeally stretched in the middle, you can skip lot of pages without loosing track of what is happening. That accounts for the 500+ pages. At some point you feel like enough!!, and want to discard it as a boring book, but things get really exciting towards the end and if you have the book in hand, I would say do not give up, read it till the end, very last page.
