I mean, Fred
I've picked up 'The earth will shake', one of his many Illuminatus books, at the local second hand shop, So I'll give it a try in the near future (best before 2012!). I'm willing to give almost anything a try, but I have to say that I have left one of the later L. Ron Hubbard books to collect dust (it was still there at my last visit, while most SF books are gone quite fast).
