Halcyon · 08-02-2007, 11:26 PM

HST is the real deal.

A true mutant. A life adventurer beyond category.

Gifted with words and courage.

I consider him to be a huge influence. Thankfully, he is only *one* of my influences...cause he also happened to be an asshole most the time.

God bless the good doctor.

Sarah_Jayne · 08-02-2007, 11:50 PM

From the thread title I wondered if we were suppose to not know that..but apparently it is more of a book club discussion ..always up for those

AsianDivaGirlsWebDude · 08-03-2007, 02:37 AM

A classic book - read it several times...I have an autographed copy (as well as autographed copies of other HST books).

Simply one of the best writers ever...

I have to agree with this

Great book - I'm sure you'll enjoy it. If after reading that you want to read more on the Angels you should check out these two books that Ralph "Sonny" Barger wrote.

Why · 08-03-2007, 07:31 AM

Why · 08-03-2007, 07:37 AM

D · 08-03-2007, 08:23 AM

I like oranges

seeric · 08-03-2007, 08:40 AM

yes, i am a hunter follower. i wouldn't say so much a fan as of yet because i haven't read that many of his works, but i do know that people like him fascinate me and i want to read more. seeing some of the people post in this thread that have, i know i've made a wise move. i've only known of him really since the vegas movie and thats what made me go looking into him.

i will surely be getting all his works as i read them one by one.
