I was wondering has any of the FC fans among us ever read the novelisation of the show?

A TOWERING SAGA AS TEMPESTUOUS AS THE SENSATIONAL TV SERIES THAT INSPIRED IT! Four generations had made it a lush haven, a bastion of wealth and tradition. Their pride, their passions, their greed—and their wrath—ran deep. Now amid the tangled beauty of its vineyards, the murderous struggle for dominion begins. No price is too great when the prize is...FALCON CREST

The above is the summing up of the novel.

It is supposed to be excellent reading & covers the show very well.

Perhaps Amazon may have it. I must check.

I read it several years ago but stupidly gave my copy away.

It was fun reading and focused mostly on Carlo Agretti's murder with the end being Jacqueline Perrault's funeral.

Other stories included Maggie's writing, Richard and Melissa together, Angela tricking Chase.

If you can get a copy, buy it. It's definitely better than the Dallas novels.

Thanks for the feedback James. I must try & get my hands on a copy.

Where did you get your copy, if thats not a nosey question.

I'm only thinking along the lines that it may no longer be on sale & I dare say it's not being printed anymore.

No not nosey at all http://www.soapchat.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I found my copy in a second hand book shop in England about four years ago but I get the feeling that it was a lucky find. Probably the best way to obtain a copy would be if it pops up on e-bay.

James just to let you know I got my mitts on a copy of the novel.

I was down in Dublin during the week & popped into this little book store on O'Connell Street & to my surprise they had it. I was a very happy camper as you could imagine.
