About book: Two strangers born worlds apart with one destiny that will define them both.William Lowell Kane, the son of a Boston millionaire, and Abel Rosnovski, the son of a penniless Polish immigrant, are born on the same day on opposite sides of the world and brought together by fate and the quest of a dream.Locked in a relentless struggle spanning sixty years and three generations, the two men battle for supremacy in pursuit of an empire, fuelled only by their hatred for the other and the knowledge it will end in triumph for one, and destruction of the other.

My thoughts:  I read this book years ago, and loved it, it was always one I wanted to read again so I thought January should be the time for this to see what I thought the second time around and I can honestly say I enjoyed it just as much the second time around.

The book has everything, mystery, drama, revenge, love and tragedy and I was taken on an epic journey of the lives of the two main characters. The book is very well written and a true page turner, so much so that I want to read the whole series again.
