Dreams Die First will appeal to people who like reading material that is close to reality. If you like reading fiction that doesn t have a feel of fiction in it but takes you to the era where and when the book was written, this book is for you.

I have read most of the work by Harold Robbins and I can tell you that this is the BEST. In fact the more popular " Never love a stranger" comes second.

The story is about a young man who is living on social security and then with a little help from his uncle he reaches the height of pornography publishing. He gets success, and wealth but all at a price.

Dreams Die First will definitely leave mark somewhere on your heart. I can say this, because even after reading so many novels, this one remains my favorite. This may sound like a personal view but I came across many people those who just loved this book.

Also, many people have complained about this book being substitute to a porn book, but I strongly disagree, if you have read about Harold Robbins or his work, you will know that his work anything but pornography. It s just the attention to details and the explicit way of explaining the situations.

He was a great writer and so is his work!
