Meisler's unconventional mystery is brisk and generally funny....An
enjoyably off-kilter whodunit with an ethically compromised amateur
detective.
--Kirkus Reviews"Do you hate mysteries with an original voice, a
sense of humor, scintillating prose and memorable characters? Then
by all means, avoid THERE'S NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO DIE by
Bernard Meisler. And don't feel bad that everyone else is enjoying
the hell out of it."
--Peter Blauner, New York Times bestselling author of PROVING
GROUND and SLOW MOTION RIOT."Imagine Norm from Cheers, everyone's
best buddy, playing a poker game with Raymond Chandler, Jim
Thompson and Chester Himes. Finally, after 20 years, Norm shows his
hand. THERE'S NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO DIE by Bernard Meisler is
a full house! Don't lose out!"
--Andrew Huebner, author of AMERICAN BY BLOOD and WE PIERCE"Loads
of fun. The voice is spot on, Meisler clearly knows the world he's
writing about, and it's laugh-out-loud funny on practically every
page."
--Kenneth Wishnia, award-winning author of 23 SHADES OF BLACK and
THE FIFTH SERVANT, editor of JEWISH NOIRTHERE'S NEVER BEEN A BETTER
TIME TO DIE is dark, twisted, and often hilarious. A fantastic
mystery with comedic elements, this novel is perfect on every
level. A must read.
--Tony DuShane, author of CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE JESUS JERK and
host of the long-running Drinks With Tony podcast."In the tradition
of T.C. Boyle, Denis Johnson, and Don Winslow, Bernard Meisler
dares to build his quirky, genre-stretching murder mystery around a
deeply flawed protagonist. Fasten your seatbelt for a savage satire
of America's richest and weirdest locale in the era of late-stage
capitalism."
--Dan Lyons, author of LAB RATS and DISRUPTED"'Meisleresque, ' let
me be the first to coin the phrase for riveting, subversive,
hilarious, suspenseful, trenchant. My only complaint about THERE'S
NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO DIE is it ends too soon. When I
finished it, without thinking I began it again."
--Arthur Nersesian, author of THE FUCK-UP and GLADYSS OF THE HUNT
