Summary: A Very Odd Game!
Review: 3 teenagers begin to take revenge on the peers that are doing better than them in any school classes.How lovely.They call it the Dead Game and the plan is to embarass these peers 1 by 1 in public.Each display of public humiliation is referred to as a 'hit' and the unfortunate victim is finally crossed off their list.
But what they do not expect is for the Dead Game to become truly deadly, and it does.
Odd kids!!But a suspenseful novel!

Summary: Best Point Horror Ever!
Review: This story is the best point horror ever! It's so brilliant! The characters are so cool (Linny totally rocks, shes so crazy) and the plot is so original. Brenda and those twins totally got what was coming to them (they were all just sooo annoying!) I can't understand why there aren't more reviews here. I have one message for all the people out there... Read The Dead Game (you haven't lived 'till you have!).

Summary: "The game got out of control...."
Review: Three Hollander High seniors (Linnie, Ming, and Jackson) decide to get even with a bunch of their classmates who they consider cheaters and liars by publicly humiliating them in a secret prank called the Dead Game. At first, their hit list only contains two people--the transfer twins (Austin and Adler)--, but as the trio gets swept away in the thrill of the game, six more students are added to the list: Brenda, Karl DeBerg, John Stalley, Price, Rafe Gibbons, and Julie Clay.

Linnie, Ming, and Jackson's plans seem to be running smoothly--that is, until Rafe Gibbons accidentally ends up in intensive care and Brenda falls down a flight of stairs to her death. The threesome then decide to stop playing the Dead Game before anyone else gets hurt. However, the game doesn't end for them there. Following the accidents, the remaining people on their hit list mysteriously get their payback. But if Linnie, Ming, and Jackson didn't do it, then who did? And if someone else is involved, are they next on the hit list?

I thought "The Dead Game" was a pretty good, fast-paced teen thriller. The game idea for revenge was quite clever and original, although I was a little bummed about the identity of the killer. Still, worth reading if you enjoy Point Thrillers. Recommended for readers age 12 and up.

Summary: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Review: You've heard of karma. You've seen how one small choice can have ripples of action and reaction beyond your wildest dreams. That's what happens to Linnie, Ming and Jackson. They thought when a game ended, they could just put the box away and go home. But not this game. It started as a way to get back at the cheats and liars who get ahead by stepping on the rest of us. The ideal "kill" was simple--public humiliation. Just enough revenge to make the snobs look like idiots for once. When something goes wrong, Linnie, Ming and Jackson abandon the game. They agree to quit, they all insist they've quit, so how come the game goes on? Has someone else decided to beat them at their own game? How can they stop a game that is dead serious? They're going to have to answer those questions before the next person dies...before the ripples of consequences ensnare everyone. Read this before you decide to get back at your best friend
