Far be it for me to defend Strieber, but this isn't fair. He was
a bestseller writer before he moved into the UFO/abduction arena.
A couple of his books, THE WOLFEN and THE HUNGER had been made
into movies. He is a fine writer able to spin a wonderful story
which does not mean that his abduction tale is fiction in and of
itself.

The point here, however, is merely to correct the statement that
he was a not too good selling horror/fiction writer. He is a
bestselling writer.
