Query: A good author gone downhill

For years I've been a fan of James P. Hogan. The man's "Giant" novels are teetering on the brink of being classics. His work has consitently shown immagination, wit and intelligence.Unfortunately his last several novels have fallen far short of his earlier promise. I won't review the plot of "Legend." Suffice it to say that it is much like many SciFi movies. A good idea ineptly handled.Hogan's world view can be best described as new age libertarianism. He has based his last few novels on premisises that would leave an orthodox scientist rolling on the floor in laughter. His proofs? The government denies. How can one doubt?Jerry
