I've never been able to recall any one or two of his 87th Precint books in detail, but while I'm reading I wonder if I'll ever be as good and then try to be better but whenever I go back to his work I say, nuts, there's still a lot to learn. And then I keep trying. But he's left us plenty to remember him by and that's not a bad legacy at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3668066.post-1120775105334086942005-07-07T17:25:00.000-05:002005-07-07T17:25:00.000-05:00I loved him either as Ed McBain or Evan Hunter.

At last count, I'd read 86 of his books and, happily, still have a number yet unread. The 8-7 will live on forever even though it's creator is gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
