Negative Positive
Title: waste of time
Review: based upon the hype of Meltzer's other book "The Tenth Justice", I was looking forward to reading "Dead Even",the summary made it look interesting. However, once I get into the actual book, I was wondering if Meltzer had a boat payment due, and wrote this book to make it. The plot sounds contrived, and is ludicrous when executed. The characters are unbeleivable, and after lying to each other for the 9 time, I was really tired of" I swear this is the last time I will lie to you ....". In summary, I have not read such a lousy novel by a "named" author since before I can remember. Save your money.
