chippa13 1844 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 Bummer, I hope "Next" wasn't his last offering because that certainly wouldn't be going out on a high note. I enjoyed much of his work. Usually good, quick reads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

number21 3 Report post Posted November 6, 2008 Bummer, I really liked "Eaters of the Dead." That's the book "The 13th Warrior" was based off of.Eaters was kind of a retelling/interpretation of the Beowulf epic. (that POS beowulf movie that came out last year is not a good version of the epic)My dad is a pretty big fan of his stuff. I read Jurassic Park in high school when the movie came out. As usual, the book was so much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
