A thread has me re-interested in Harlan Ellison. I just finished "Strange Wine", "Angry Candy" and I'm now on "The Essential Ellison".

Very strange man, Ellison.

Funny though, his writings seemed to have affected my way of thinking.

I am also in the process of reading James Patterson (sometimes I read two books at the same time, depending which mood I'm in) and after reading Harlan, Patterson's writing seems almost childlike. I enjoy Patterson's stories but not his writing.
