He was not a prolific writer, but Alas Babylon, Forbidden Area, and Hold Back the Night were all dramatised either for TV or movies; and "Man's Favourite Sport", a mild sex comedy, was based on one of his short stories.
I discovered Par Frank through Seven Days to Never, and didn't find another book of his until I tripped over Alas Babylon recently, so Seven Days is still, in my mind, the definitive Pat Frank.
