One of my very favorite authors.... Yep, one of my very favorites.
Also!
The Giants Trilogy, The Mirror Maze, and The Infinity Gambit are among my favorites.
R.I.P. Mr. Hogan, you will be missed. Not very many of the greats left, now. Almost, but not quite, makes me feel old.
I discovered Hogan about a decade ago when I found "Cradle of Saturn" in the Outagamie County Library in Appleton, WI. I devoured that book in two sittings. The book started out with a couple of well-conceived and brilliantly executed swats at the UN, the surveillance state, and the eco-socialist regulatory apparat --and got better from there.
He was a spectacular talent and will be sorely missed.
I've hastily assembled every Hogan book I could find online (28 in total) and created a torrent for y'all. Enjoy...
