Sad news. I hadn't read much of his work in a few years, but Inherit The Stars ranks among my favorite SF novels.
I remember THRICE UPON A TIME. That was a really interesting book.
I'm very sorry to hear that. I loved a lot of his work, especially the Inherit the stars books. I even met the guy once. I've got a couple of signed books by him.
Met him at an Aggiecon many years ago. I got several books signend, including Inherit the Stars and Thrice Upon a Time.
It's a shock. He was a very entertaining guest at ArmadilloCon.
Here's a link to an audio interview:

I'd forgotten that he was a guest at Armadillocon, and fairly recently.
