I have paperbacks and kindle of Armor.
A paperback of Vampire$,
Found a scan of the pages of The Bluenose Limit online,
But I believe he wrote maybe 4 more short stories I cannot find.

If you crossed early/middle Heinlein with Haldeman and a touch of Scalzi, and a pinch of King-  you get Steakley.

How Armor never even got a nomination for a Hugo, Nebulla, or even a Campbell amazes me.



Has ANY work, fiction or not, captured the dead inside, disassociation of repeated brutal exposure to death and combat to this degree?

Had no idea he did anything besides Armor and Vampire$.....

Armor is good shit.

I'm interested as well. A member here was friends with him. Can't remember which one though.

I know the name, and just can't bring it to mind right now...

He was the owner of johnsteakley.com for many years, and ran the forum there.
