That's who immediately came to my mind. It's not really fair in my case,
since, as far as I know, he's the only son of a famous author that I've
read.

There's Joe Hill but I've not read him. Heard good things about his
books, though.
 

I read his NOS4A2 A Novel, which I classified as more of a Horror story
than Fantasy and although I finished it with a rating of 3 stars, I have
not sought more because Horror doesn't appeal. I remember reading
father's "It" decades ago but wouldn't enjoy that genre today though Joe
does have his own style.

I like Rothman's The World is Round.
