Pros: writing flows, story goes by quickly
Cons: long chapters, not believable, characters

Pros: Very engrossing story that had me hooked.
Cons: My eyes are strained from all the rolling they had to do.
The Sky Is Falling by Sidney Sheldon has a lot of really good stuff in it. I have to say it completely held my interest in the "can't put it down" kind of way. But I also found myself shaking my head several times and saying "Yeah, right" in that ...

Pros: great plot; believable characters; a political scandal!!!!
Cons: none
While Sidney Sheldon is the author of seventeen novels, all of which have been best-selling novels,(sixteen #1 on New York Times Bestseller List, and I am sure this one will make it there too!) you would think I would have already discovered him....

Pros: Fast moving and a semi-interesting plot.
Cons: Stupid characters, unbelievable events, rather trite.
I used to like Sidney Sheldon, I really did. When I started reading his books when I was in high school, I was extremely impressed and tried to get my hands on anything he'd done. If Tomorrow Comes and Windmills of the Gods are two of his books that I...

Pros: turn paging suspense.
Cons: none
My sister recommended this book to me as something that might interest me. Having half a dozen books that I’ve been meaning to read, I added it to my stack of books. I finally had the opportunity to read it while waiting endlessly for my Southwest...

Pros: Great presentation, story and character description. Fast plot advancement.
Cons: Sequence of events very much like Doomsday Conspiracy, which hampers the element of surprise.
RUN CHICKEN LI’L THE SKY IS FALLIN’

Pros: Good characters, good plot
Cons: Not a book I couldn't put down.

by louanna , Mar 02 '01
Pros: simple, easy to read, good for bedtime
Cons: no depth of characters, heroine is not believable
The Prologue to “The Sky is Falling”, meant to imply danger, excitement and immense wealth and intrigue, did little to stir any emotion .“Twelve men from 12 countries (gee) were in comfortable chairs in a heavily guarded underground chamber listening...

Pros: Fast read
Cons: none
I have been a great Sidney Sheldon fan for a long time. I have read every book that he has written. I couldn't wait for this book to come out and now that I've read it I am disappointed. I think perhaps I have put Mr. Sheldon on a level that is hard to...

Pros: Fast paced, a true page turner
Cons: none
I have read every book that Sidney Sheldon has brought out and this one is by far the best!
You have three story lines that all tied into one. One about trying to find a serial killer, the next about a little boy named Kemal and the lack of...

Pros: easy read, mostly action, characters that you will match to movie stars
Cons: characters one-dimensional
My opinion? It is that reading this book is a lot like watching one of Sidney Sheldons' t.v. shows; a nice, light, entertaining enough experience, just don't expect to come away with any deep or lasting impressions. Actually, what it will leave you with...
