I remember loving Popcorn and Stark and Gridlock and This Other Eden way back when. They're probably a bit dated now, but they were good then. Then he fell off my radar for a while.
Then over the past few years he's written some reasonable holiday reads (High Society, Past Mortem, Inconceivable).
Then I read The First Casualty and it was bloody brilliant! Loved it, and despite the doubt in their eyes when I pressed it on family and friends, they loved it too. A great book.
Just finished Blind Faith... what a let down. Has anyone else read it? What exactly was his point? Was it an environmental crusade? A religion rant? What was with all the flesh? So disappointed.
