    <body><![CDATA[Good political thriller with a semi-realistic tone.  Meltzer keeps the pace going although at times it's at the sacrifice of the writing.  How many times can a character &quot;smash&quot; through the door way? Really? A nicely done cave sequence mid-story that adds the last needed reader momentum to...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/5800187">more...</a>]]></body>

The Zero Game is a really thrilling read about a group who play a game with congressional bills.

    <body><![CDATA[The technology premise that supposedly provided the motivation for all the intrigue was a bit thin. Leaving that aside, it was a fun read. I wouldn't go out of my way to look for more by the author based on this example, but if they were loaned to me (as this one was), I'd probably give them a read....<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39069151">more...</a>]]></body>

I started reading Meltzer after he signed on to write the Green Arrow comic, but before those comics came out.

    <body><![CDATA[This is a fast paced political thriller told from a variety of POV, which was slightly confusing when listening to it on audio.  The part I liked best was the teenager, Viv, who gets sucked into this life or death situation and who is not only strong, but interesting.  You don't often find teens lik...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46829212">more...</a>]]></body>

Even that promising theme was eventually destroyed as a hoax at the end, much to my disappointment.  The book went d...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23774088">more...</a>]]></body>

The plots are light, and they move quickly.  <br/><br/>This one centers on betting on the outcome of legislation in congress.  There are plenty of twists and turns that the book takes.
