Vince Flynn was his long time friend....
I only know Flynn through his books....but I've read every one.
This man knew how much trouble our nation is in and tried to convey it through his words.
This is a huge loss.....and he was so young.
I read it again, recently... and, it was funny to see just how dramatically Vince's writing style improved...I guess a 10-11 book series will do that for you. :-)
EACH book was better than the one before.
Vince was the only author, since Michael Crighton, that I KNEW when his next book was coming out.. and, COULDN'T WAIT to get them.
Sometimes... I would hold them for a couple of weeks.. waiting to read them on long international flights. Those trips FLEW by... literally.
Sad, sad day... But, DAMNIT, I've donating money TODAY to a good friend's cancer fighting cause... The Big C is a bitch!
