ENGLING, Richard (David George Patrick)

(1952-)

   US writer whose NEAR FUTURE sf novel, Body Mortgage (1989), tells in a CYBERPUNK idiom the tale of a Chicago private eye on the track of a body-parts scam in the immediate run-up to the millennium. RE's obvious competence would show more clearly, perhaps, in a more fully original setting.
