JimmyNeutron Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 I liked Sidney Sheldon's Master of the Game. Many movies plagiarized the plot! Quote Link to comment
drEVILmba Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 I agree with you on that Jimmy. Just wondering anyone who likes tom clancy? i don't like reading those books that were created by him but not written by him. Quote Link to comment
malachi Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Good evening, booklovers! drevilmba, what do you mean by "books that were created by him (clancy) but not written by him"? Quote Link to comment
