Have you tried his Dead Six series?
I find that most of the time, I tend not to like books where authors are writing in someone else's universe. Sometimes it works, but more often than not, the reason that I like a series isn't the world building, it's the author. When I think of some of the more successful franchises, such as Star Wars or Star Trek, they tend to start in other media and then authors use that back ground to set books. Trying to capture the feel of another author is difficult.
