Book 66: "Sidney Sheldon's Mistress of the Game" by Tilly Bagshawe

     For the most part, we love sequels and revivals.  It is both comfortable and exciting to re-visit "old friends", anticipating re-creating some of that original magic again.  That is what this next novel is all about.
     Sidney Sheldon was one of America's most popular and prolific storytellers.  All 18 of his novels made it to the top of the New York Times bestseller list, he created "The Patty Duke Show", "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Hart to Hart", and his screen plays included "Easter Parade" and "Annie Get Your Gun".
    This new book is a sequel to Sheldon's 1982 blockbuster, "Master of the Game".  Its' author,  Tilly Bagshawe, does an admirable and accurate job creating an updated visit to the Maxwells, America's richest and equally dysfunctional family.  It is a family saga complete with many unexpected twists and turns for the reader.
