I liked the Andromeda Strain novel and original movie, too. But in recent years, he was really going off the deep end. His writing just wasn't believable anymore. Still, he's not the most overrated writer. I leave that honor to Stephen King.

His first(?) "Dealing: or the Berkeley-to-Boston Forty-Brick Lost Bag Blues" certainly brings back good memories.

Sad, yes. I loved Andromeda Strain. But his last book State of Fear was a total piece of shit right wing corporatist propaganda piece.
