Bummer. I rather liked some of his novels. Also, I never knew he was a giant. RIP.

the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,

What a loss. Amazing author, even if his books were murdered as movies, the books themselves were fantastic.

RIP
Don't forget Congo, Sphere, The Great Train Robbery, Eaters of the Dead...

A horribly ironic touch that a man of medicine and science was struck down by a medical enigma such as cancer. RIP.
