>>1159246Guys, seriously look into this man. His books changed my life, from the first line of the first story i read. It physically pains me to see people arguing about bullshit in a thread for dropping books. I am not being pretentious if you pick up one of his books you will be looking for me trying to say thank you but my trip will be gone by then. And dont google him and decide based on his life story thats retarded. Get the abortion or the hawkline monster or so the wind wont blow it all away. This man is a god damn genius , i have only ever told my closest three friends about him over the decade since i found him because knowing his work is exists is better than having any super power. I am not joking at all. Really every page could make a grown man cry all while being grittier than dirt itself. “The voyage from San Francisco to Hawaii had been the most terrifying experience Greer and Cameron had ever gone through, even more terrible than the time they shot a deputy sheriff in Idaho ten times and he wouldn't die and Greer finally
had to say to the deputy sheriff,
"Please die because we don't want to
shoot you again".
And the deputy sheriff had said, "Ok, I'll die, but don't shoot me again".
"We won't shoot you again", Cameron had said.
"Ok, I'm dead", and he was.”
