Dr Pournelle was one of my favorite authors. I can honestly say that I have every book of his and liked them all. Mostly, I think he was simply a good story teller.

Most of his series had self contained stories that left room for more, rather than the series that is simply a very long story that gets chopped up into book size bits.

Personally, I liked the Falkenberg stories the most. I was pretty happy when he finally filled in the gaps with Prince of Sparta and Go Tell the Spartans (co written with S. M. Stirling).
