Veto by Ed Griffin deals with current global issues, a deep probing into the dilemma of the U.N., and also offers a "can't put it down" plot. My thought after reading was that it would make an excellent film. I learned ore about the U.N in this book than I had ever before. Good strong characters, and Griffin shows a rare ability to write from a woman's point of view. Not a lot of people can pull that off! Great read.
Don't "veto" this book!

I love reading a novel that makes you think. "Veto" is the best of Ed Griffin's novels. It is a thought-provoking story about an important topic - the United Nations and the United States' role in it. It made me question many of my preconceptions about the UN and certainly made me more aware of politic machinations at the global level. Griffin's obvious concern for justice and equity in the world and his sympathy for the underdog come through in all three novels, but most clearly in this one. Good book!
