Hey guys,
I REALLY haven't been blogging enough...
Just wanted to hit you with a quick one about the book I'm currently reading. It's called The Tenth Justice and it's by a fellow named Brad Meltzer. Some of you reading may recognize the name as the one-time writer of comics series Identity Crisis and Justice League of America. That's where I discovered him...
This book is kind of a far cry from those works, though...
I haven't read much in the vein of the legal thriller, but this book just doesn't let up... I read over 150 pages of it just today and I still want more!!!
When young Supreme Court clerk Ben Addison spills the beans on a major upcoming decision before it's actually rendered, his world turns upside down... It's a story of a career on the line, blackmail, trust (or the lack thereof), suspense, and betrayal... There's treats in there for the comic fan, as well... All of the Supreme Court Justices are named after characters in Watchmen... There are casual comic book references... But deep down, there's just an amazing story that makes you struggle to put it down...
If you're so inclined, check out Brad Meltzer and any of his works: comics or prose... You'll be rewarded...
'Til next time... Peace...
