Sad day . I just wish he had done some books in H beam Piper's universe like he always said he would. |

I wish that his surname, Pournelle was spelt correctly in this title. Really enjoyed his Co-Dominion stories, one of the military sci-fi forerunners & it's time to re-read Falkenberg's Legion et al, in salutation. RIP sir and thank you for the stories. |

Sad :( perhaps not the best writer, but certainly imaginative and influential |

Sad indeed. I was never all that fond of the stuff he did solo, but I really liked his collaborations with Niven. Doug |
