More About the Author

Melinda Metz grew up in San Jose, California. People sometimes ask if she knows the way there. She kinda does, but she has an off-kilter sense of direction, so to be confident of arriving, it's better to consult some kind of navigational device.

Her mother tried to teach her to read in kindergarten, but Melinda had no interest. She also had no interest in learning to write her name. (FYI, when Melinda was in kindergarten it was all about finger-painting, play time, and naps.) Eventually, she mastered both and even majored in English at San Jose State University.

After college, Melinda moved to Manhattan to seek her fortune, which involved learning to identify fruits and vegetables while working at a grocery store,
making $2.73 working backstage for an off-off Broadway play (her part of the box-office profits), and editing books.

Melinda and the lovely and talented Laura J. Burns pretty much became unofficial writing partners when they were editors at the same company. They teamed up to brainstorm story ideas, and at some point their brains fused in some key places. Later they worked on the Roswell High book series, Laura developing and editing the series, Melinda writing.

That series led to Melinda and Laura, now an official writing team, writing two TV pilots, moving to L.A. to work on the Roswell TV show, and briefly living in Toronto while on the writing staff of 1-800-Missing. They both continue to write books, together and separately.

Melinda has never regretted learning to read and write her name.

5.0 out of 5 stars something special..., December 11, 1999
By A Customer
I started out by watching the series on TV, and switched to the book. The characters are the same, but the stories are not, and I recommend that you watch-read both. About The Watch, I love how Adam(the alien boy from the compound who was prisoned with Micheal) seems both wonderfully amazed at life's little wonders, and yet, while being so innocent, he manages to show us how every one can have a darker side. I do not think he is evil, just too in touch with his emotions and his power. As for Cameron, Micheal better not fall in love with her. I like her and all, but I don't think she can be trusted. After all, she did give Valenti the info he wanted on the others... I think Ms.Matz did wonderful work with the characters. We think they're all good, then all bad. But we find out that they are just acting on their feelings and emotions. Beautiful character arcs. Anyways, the plot was great too!

By A Customer
I read this book awhile book and I love the series I've readeveryone at least three times. This book leaves you with such acliffhanger I have been going nuts waiting for the 6 one to come out. This a a awesome book and would recommend the series and this book of course to any one who likes romance and mystery and sci fi. These books are a definite combination of that and don't forget to watch the show which is also great but the books are better!
