    After reading second time this novel I have no doubt that Jeffery Archer is master story teller. Undoubtedly Sons of Fortune is one of his marvelous master pieces. The story is about twin brother who unfortunately separated without knowing each other existence. Like his novel Kane and Abel both are geniuses in their respective field from childhood. As typical Jeffery Archer style this novel also start with description of central character Nat and Fletcher parent stories and then slowly progress the description of their upbringing and last with unfolding all the mysteries gather during their life time .He brilliantly used historical and contemporary event to make his story more realistic. I have no doubt he use all the ingredient of recipe in this novel to spell bound you to last page. You found Love, deceit, war, business, politics and mystery in this novel. Only mastermind story teller able to unveil the mystery of governor election result as he does in the last line of novel. Although story has its pace but some time it fills with unnecessary exaggeration of event. But when you read this novel it will little impact the story and reading. The writing art of novelist is unparallel as always. He is one of my most favorite writers. I may be biased but over all its pack of all ingredients which make it near to complete entertainment package for reader. I would certainly recommend this novel for reading. My rating for this novel is three and half out of five.

    I Really liked this book! There were some flaws/story gaps I thought, but overall it was an interesting read. My only real issue with the book is how tongue-in-cheek the two main characters took the news that they were twins separated at birth. I felt there was this huge build up and then.....nothing. I respect the author's decision to have them proceed with the information as they did but it felt a bit empty, like that MAIN element of the story was missing something very profound.

    I was not able to leave this book once I had started reading it. Nothing to take home from it just pure fun and gripping story telling. Thorough fiction novel.

    Two brothers separated at birth, their separate lives and how they meet finally.Actually the story is really nice and not as dull as I made it sound in my first line.Both the brothers then end up contesting against each other without knowing the truth and one brother defending the other in court.It is a good read.Go for it.

    Its an awesome book though a bit adult in some places.....
    But the book 6 in which there is a court case is simply the best
