Master of the Game is a novel by Sidney Sheldon, first published in hardback format in 1982.[1] Spanning four generations in the lives of the fictional McGregor/Blackwell family, the critically acclaimed novel spent four weeks at number one on The New York Times Best Seller list,[2] and was later adapted into a 1984 television miniseries.[3]

On August 4, 2009 (two years after Sheldon's death), William Morrow and Company released a sequel, Sidney Sheldon's Mistress of the Game, written by Tilly Bagshawe.
