Damn it.
Just found out John Steakley died on Saturday.
For those not familiar, Steakley wrote Vampire$ and Armor, and was working on Armor 2.
Personally, I consider Armor to be some of the best science fiction I've ever read, and was eagerly awaiting him to finish the sequel.
Probably selfish of me, but I hope it was finished or close to, and they can find a good author to compliment his writing.
Thank you for the stories of Jack Crow and Felix, John. You were not the most prolific writer, but by the gods, what you did put out was good stuff. I still go back and re-read Armor at least once a year or so, and never get tired of it.
RIP
