Vince Flynn, Gone Much Too Soon
June 19th, 2013
by 
Cancer this morning took the life of the prolific and popular Vince Flynn, at the far too young age of 47.
I met Vince in 1998, while he was touring for his first thriller “Term Limits” – a book originally rejected by all the big houses, and subsequently self-published. After it became a bestseller, Vince signed a two-book deal with Simon & Schuster.
Since that first interview, Vince and I talked almost every year, but his fall 2009 tour stop in Washington, D.C. turned out to be his last.
Vince was a good and loyal friend to Eye on Books, and I will miss him. RIP, good friend.
