      L. Ron Hubbard definitely. Mission Earth is without question the greatest dekology of all time.

      I loved both - Battlefield Earth and Mission Earth. Still do. Sure it is not Fahrenheit 451 but I do not care. It provides lots of interesting reading.

      As for blogs - I've never liked reading about books. I lover reading books instead. I am a bookoholic

      Mission earth was phenomenal. It’s too bad I can’t get anyone to read Hubbard. They are missing out.

      I love long books just fine. Like "Mission Earth" by Ron Habbard or "A Song of Ice and Fire" by George Martin or Asimov etc. etc

      Mission Earth - L. Ron Hubbard

      I liked his books. That's all that matters to me. I do not give a flying hoot about what kind of a man he was in real life nor am I interested to know.

      Similar example - L. Ron Hubbard. I like his Mission Earth and I really do not need to know about the rest of his life.
