Gordy Dickson is another author mostly famous for one series, in this case
it's the Dorsai. I like this series, the earlier ones in particular (I
haven't read The Chantry Guild yet, but felt that The Final Encyclopedia
could have easily been cut in half). I would like to see some more
attention on the other exotic peoples sometime.
Aside from that, you'll notice that he's had many collections released in
the last few years. These are generally composed of stories from the 50's
and 60's. In terms of his other work, I can recommend Time Storm, Way of
the Pilgrim, & The Hoka Stories (incredibly silly but fun).
[C] == Short Story Collection.
[J] == The book is for juveniles (however you define them)
[O] == Omnibus. Includes other books.
aka == Also known by this other title.
includes == This book wholely includes the other
rev == revision of an older title
