Eaten by a dinosaur?

Bummer, he was one of my favorite authors. The first book I ever read that he wrote was Jurassic Park. My mom used to be a member of a book ring where they would exchange books. This was one of the few SciFi books my mom actually bothered to read which she later handed off to me.
The rest of his work is really clean and, IMHO, very consistent and thorough. Not at all like the rubbish Stephen King has been writing.
Mauzy:
Damn. He was the first "grown up" author I read (starting with Jurassic park of course, then Congo...). Ive read 11 of his books, and haven't found one I didn't like yet. He was just gory enough to keep attention without going nuts.
I can't even pick a favorite, it would prolly be between Congo, Timeline, Airframe, and Prey.....and Sphere.... possibly Next...
SirPeale:
Timeline is one of my favorite books of all time. I didn't like Prey.
