Jason Kahn's writing career began as a teenager writing and editing for his high school newspaper. He continued his journalism studies at the University of Michigan (after a nearly disastrous stint in accounting caused him to "swear off all numbers and figuring" forever), and after that at New York University.

Although he read fantasy and science fiction since he was young, it was actually his wife who suggested to him while they were dating in college that "hey, why don't you try writing one of those?" And so he did, starting with a couple of attempts at novels, which he returns to now and again. For the past several years, though, Jason has concentrated on short stories, achieving a small measure of success with a long-running online series and pieces appearing in Baen's Universe, the anthology Strange Stories of Sand and Sea, Abandoned Towers, Damnation Books, and Something Wicked Magazine. His debut novel, Badge of Lies, a hardboiled crime thriller, is currently available courtesy of Pro Se Productions.

Today he lives in Park Slope, Brooklyn, with all the other young families who fled Manhattan for more space. By day, he runs a news service for cardiologists based out of a research foundation in New York City. Jason's hobbies include rooting for his University of Michigan Wolverines and chasing after two mischievous gnomes who claim to be his children.

Review: Badge of Lies – Jason Kahn by Nadine Maritz (http://my-addictionbooks.blogspot.com/2013/07/review-badge-of-lies-jason-kahn.html)

                  Badge of Lies is a skilfully crafted novel that strips open the exterior of a hard headed cop – Frank Arnold, who is not only struggling with the death of his best friend but also fights regaining ground between the job that has hardened his perception of life and what he should stand for. His character is set as a real hard-core, blue blood - cop who is toughened by the crime he fights. He is in no way a straight forward idol or symbol of courage – and that I like.

                  What makes this novel so intriguing – at least for me - is the fact that Jason Khan went out of his way to throw readers into the explicit truths of not only the main character but also that of the friend – Mitch Connel, who he morns. The story is weaved majestically between the faltered main character and his obsession to unravel the secrets his friend had tried to carry to his grave.

                  The intrigue and mystery flows side - by - side creating an explosive Police Thriller as Kahn enslaves reader’s minds to run riot with the obvious. Sometimes damaged cops need to do bad things to become the better person.

What I liked:

                  I think it’s very clear that I loved the twisted plot. I craved to puzzle up the obvious battered character, to unknot the seemingly hurt mind of Frank Arnold. Kahn really did a good job of describing his surroundings, of luring me in and unravelling pieces to the plot at just the right time. Throughout the entire novel I felt as if I could see it play down, as if I shared the characters thoughts, as if the way he acted was something I could associate with.  

There really wasn’t something I could put towards a dislike. It’s a novel which you would either love or hate. I think it was an easy enough read to be read and enjoyed by just about anyone.

I give it a very strong four out of five - with odds, I might add - definitely tilting towards the five.

Great read.
