[net.sf-lovers] Concerning Mack Reynolds

dcn@ixn5h.UUCP (06/17/83)

	I was also wondering what happened to Mack Reynolds.  The
	latest book I have is Lagrange 5, published in 1979.  It
	is similar to an earlier book of his called Satellite City.
	Then this small article in Analog caught my eye.

		Mack Reynolds	1917-1983

	Mack Reynolds, a prolific contributor well known to Analog
	readers since the late 1950's, died of cancer in a Texas
	hospital on January 30, 1983.  According to Mike Ashley's
	Complete Index to Astounding/Analog, he was Analog's third
	most prolific contributor and also one of the most popular;
	he was the only author ever to have as many as ten novels
	serialized here.  Mack Reynolds's stories are perhaps best
	known for their persistent and thought-provoking exploration
	of alternative socioeconomic systems.*
