Negative Positive
Title: An unabashed Meltzer fan, thoroughly disappointed.
Review: In this book I felt as though Meltzer relied too heavily on the mystique surrounding characters that hold positions of high esteem within the book world. In his previous novels like 'The First Counsel' and 'The Tenth Justice' he used characters who occupied very prestigious positions in Washington to spin exceptionally entertaining tales. This time around the main character is a hollow shell of his predecessors and the fact that he is connected to an ex-President of the United States does nothing at all to make him appealing. Possibly noone was there to tell Meltzer 'No!' this time around and the result was a book I put down for good after a very tedious 150 pages. Pick it up Brad, I actually bought this book so next time around you owe me buddy.
