How I could ever be a fan of a drug-addled, militant smoker who loved guns and hated liberal thought, I'll never know. But FALILV and Lono are two of the most fun books I've ever had the privilege to read.
Cons: Yup. Dead.

Completely irreverent, iconoclastic writer with a terrific eye for detail.
Cons: His self-indulgence sometimes spilled from his real life into his writing.

"Buy the ticket, take the ride."

Greatest American to ever live who wasn't afraid of speaking the truth for better or worse.
Cons: There will never be another Hunter S. Thompson.

The best artist of the 70's IMO
Cons: Lost his spark towards the end - not even Bush could rekindle it...

Simply incredible. Sad that a writer like Thompson could not come into being during the 21st century.
