I still have them in my garage bookcase of books I like to re-read and I just pulled them out when I saw the post. So, thanks for reminding me of a author I haven’t read in a few years. I just wish I could find a copy of “The Silent Stars Go By” an alternated history book in the vein of “Lest Darkness Fall” by L. Sprague De Camp.
