Robert Asprin also took on an understudy who is continuing his Myth series.
But sometimes it can go horribly, horribly wrong like with the Tom Clancy brand's new books and Lee Child's latest Jack Reacher novel.

I like both Clancy and Reacher series and believe they are in good hands. Same with Dune.
I'm saddened about Drake
