I have also been reading a few by C.J. Petit his are westerns but didn't notice while a top rated western writer his books are also tops in the romance categories but then looking back at my favorite westerns the good guy always did get the girl. Romance or western I like his writing style and story lines.
Edward Abbey had a few good books in him. Re-reading that 'One Second After' book (found it in a Salvation Army store for $1) - lots of good 'Never thought of that !' thoughts in it. For those who aren't aware of it, the good dealt with the effects of an EMP event in the Carolinas. Fiction - but fiction that makes you think. Much like the original 'Alas Babylon' Pat Frank book.
ReplyDeleteI have read one second after twice and hundreds of other P.A. books. Some times I read straight fiction and westerns because they don't make me think ;).
