re: #81 Testy Toad T
When he was writing pure technothriller (HFRO, obviously), he was damned good. The further he strayed from his area of actual expertise, the more derpage shined (shone?) through.
Yep
I loved Red Storm Rising. One of the few books I literally could not put down all night. Cardinal of the Kremlin was another really good one. Sometime in the 90’s, the derp became strong with him.
