RIP
His “David Sullivan” series was and still remains my favorite fantasy series. I kept hoping that he would write more and fill us in on what’s happened with David, Alec and the rest of the “Gang”.
Sad stuff… he’ll definitely be missed.
I was John Douglas’ assistant when John first bought Tom’s first book out of slush, as well as later buying several subsequent books of Tom’s; he was always a sweetheart to work with, and I was sad when I heard a few days ago about his passing.
