  Amazon.ca: Alternate: Books: John Martel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Martel (one of the National Law Journals top ten trial lawyers and the author of Conflicts of Interest, 1985) delivers a masterly story of murder, madness, and the law.Annelle R. Huggins, Memphis State Univ. Libs.
Martel neglects all the traditional strengths of legal intriguethe courtroom scenes are muffled, the complications exhausting, the characters as simplified as caricaturesin order to keep unearthing new varieties of skullduggery the way some writers unearth new evidence.
Martel would've written a masterpiece if only the fascinating questions he raises about the corruption bred by the adversarial system of criminal justice made for equally fascinating melodrama.

Zacks recently sat down with John Martel (aka: JohnnyBull John), a penny stock watcher who is currently among the top 20 in the Zacks 4th Quarter Stock Challenge with an overall return that is quickly approaching 30%.
John explained that his approach is simple and straight forward, referring to his investment strategy as a “common sense” strategy.

 Amazon.com: Partners: Books: John Martel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Martel, a seasoned corporate trial attorney, sets this enjoyable, though largely unsuspenseful first novel at Smith, Parrish & MacAllister, an elite San Francisco law firm feeling the pinch of hard times.
Rachel Cannon, a sharp and beautiful associate hoping to become a partner, and her inamorata Kevin Stone, a much-admired trial lawyer who never loses a case, are part of the litigation team.
Martel provides an engrossing look at the inner workings of a legal firm preparing a case with far-reaching ramifications for all involved.

 Amazon.ca: Billy Strobe: Books: John Martel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Full of twists and turns, wit and well-drawn characters, Martel's fourth novel (after 2001's The Alternate) manages to transcend pig jokes and Okie humor to present a realistic portrait of a young man coming to grips with the truth about his father and himself.
The powerful prison sequences have the ring of authenticity, as do the courtroom and office scenes, attesting to Martel's professional expertise (he is one of the nation's top ten trial lawyers, according to the National Law Journal).
John Martel's fourth novel "Billy Strobe" is excellent, a non stop thriller, I found myself unable to put it down, and read it late into the morning, two days consecutively.

Martel's story of an ex-congressman, connected to the mob, who goes on trial for the murder of his beauty queen wife, grabs the reader on the opening page, but slowly eases its grip as the story predictably unfolds.
When John Martel started this novel, he had all the beginings of a great courtroom novel.
Martel portrays the lawyers to be very competent, but even they get fooled by Keller which is hard to believe.
