Katka by Stephen Meier is a gritty, edgy novel of greed, love, and swindles gone very wrong. When Gavin and his girlfriend team with her best friend Simona to pull a phony mail order bride scam in the... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I am not a big reader, which just goes to show that I have been choosing the wrong books. Once I started Katka, I couldn't put it down, literally. I stayed up until 2 am reading it straight through. The dialogue driven writing had me feeling as though I was watching a movie as much as reading a book, and I loved "casting" the characters as I read. I found myself alternately despising and caring about the characters, but always excited to learn what would come next for them. Katka definitely left me excited for a sequel, which I hope is coming soon. Mr. Meier?

I have read many a book by many a great author and Katka could easily be listed among my favorites. Once I cracked the first page open on Katka I did not put it down until I was finished. The writing style was thrilling and the characters even more so...especially Simona. I found myself wanting desperately to know more about these people and what was going to happen next. I truly hope this excellent novella could become a motion picture, even though I saw the entire movie in my head while I was reading, the characters really come to life. I believe that Stephen R. Meier is on his way up and this could be the story that takes him there. Can not wait for the sequel!!
One of a kind...
