    <body><![CDATA[Years ago, a woman at work told me over and over to read this book and I was never interested. Some time later, I met my husband, who is not much of a reader but told me he loves to read Jeffrey Archer.  I will read just about anything so I started out with some of his short stories and loved them. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/64359513">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Ok, a very long saga which could have been quite a bit shorter.  I did enjoy the story even though too long but really have no intention of reading the sequel.  I guess I have had enough of both Kane and Abel.  A bit of it was predictable, and a nice bit of it was surprising.  There was enough to ke...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58534571">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book epitomized my belief that when you desire something and want it real bad and you work for it with all your heart and soul nothing in the world will come in the way. This was seen in Abel Rosnovski's character.<br/><br/>People who recommended this book to me loved Abel's struggle by which...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63140846">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Story Overview<br/><br/>Two men—William Lowell Kane and Abel Rosnovski—are born on the same day in 1906. However, their births could not be more different. Abel is a penniless orphan who is adopted by a poor Polish woodcutter's family after his mother is found dying by the road. Kane is born i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/64140138">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I thought that the plot of this book was wildly implausible, and I thought that the author didn't even try to avoid some pretty obvious problems.  The implausibility is a problem, but it's not a huge problem.  I could see myself liking a book with wildly implausible events.  But I feel like the auth...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/28528395">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is an excellent book that hooks you within the first few pages.  It is a long one, but you get to be part of the lives of 2 men, born on the same day worlds apart, who undergo different struggles that make them strong, and they always come out on top in the end.  They are both strong-minded and...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/50515974">more...</a>]]></body>
