Brad Meltzer Brad Meltzer is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The
Book of Fate, as well as the bestsellers The
Tenth Justice, Dead Even, The
First Counsel, The
Millionaires and The
Zero Game. He is also one of the co-creators of the TV show,
Jack & Bobby—and is the number one selling author of
the critically acclaimed comic books, Identity
Crisis and Justice
League of America.
His newest comic book, DC Universe, will be released in August, and his
new thriller, The Book of Lies, will be published in September. Raised
in Brooklyn and Miami, Brad is a graduate of the University of Michigan
and Columbia Law School.
The
Tenth Justice was his first published work and became an
instant New York Times bestseller. Dead Even followed a year later and
also hit the New York Times bestseller list, as have all six of his
novels. The
First Counsel came next, which was about a White House lawyer
dating the President's daughter, then The
Millionaires, which was about two brothers who steal money
and go on the run. The
Zero Game is about two Congressional staffers who
are—literally—gambling on Congress. The
Book of Fate, is about a young presidential aide, a crazed
assassin, and the 200 year-old code created by Thomas Jefferson that
ties them together. For authenticity, The
Book of Fate was researched with the help of former
Presidents Clinton and Bush.
His newest book, The Book of Lies, is about the missing murder weapon
that Cain used to kill Abel, as well as the unsolved murder of Superman
creator Jerry Siegel's father. Brad is one of the only people to
interview Jerry Siegel's family about the murder.
His books have spent over nine months on the bestseller lists, and have
been translated into over 25 languages, from Hebrew to Bulgarian. In The
Tenth Justice, the opening lines are: "Ben Addison was
sweating. Like a pig." In the Hebrew translation, it became: "Ben
Addison was sweating. Like a horse." We're not sure if it's a kosher
thing or what!
