    Have any of you here read any of these, or anything else by him, for
    that matter?

    I've read Ordeal by Hunger, Fire, Storm, Earth Abides ... thought there
    was one more I'd read but apparently not.

    Neat - thanks. After just a little bit of poking around, I am
    considering either Storm or Fire in the future (or both, I suppose). Do
    your memories lean toward one or the other?

    Maybe Fire over Storm? I should reread them.
