Message: [QUOTE="longtimefan, post: 5420625, member: 212"] One of my favorites--John D. McDonald (grew up in Utica, degree from SU). Probably best known for the Travis McGee series, but prolific well beyond. He wrote Cape Fear, twice made into a movie, the second time with De Niro as a truly menacing, creepy character. If you want an intro, my favorite of the McGee series is "The Green Ripper" written in 1979, and previewing the age of terrorism. It won the 1980 National Book Award. [/QUOTE]
