What a tragic loss

Steve Smith Nov 09, 2011

I only discovered andrew britton a month ago, and was instantly impressed. as an avid reader of the espionage genre and an aspiring author myself, there were so many things i admired about his writing style, so i was devastated to learn of his death - and shocked at how young he was - just a few years older than myself. as far as i am concerned, each one of his books is right up there with the best of tom clancy, brad thor, daniel silva, and barry eisler. he will be missed.

For Andrew on his 30th Birthday Jan 6th 2011

Annie Britton Nice Jan 07, 2011

IF I could have picked a son Andrew, I would have picked you. Your great sense of humor, your spirit your style. Your amazing love and affection, the joy in your smile , that ole Irish twinkle in your eye when you looked at us straight faced and tried to lie. Life holds many surprises , and you where mine, from the day they first to...ld me I was carrying you inside till the day that you so unexpectedly left us with a river to cry. I just loved knowing you watching you grow and since you left the healing is painful and slow. Yesterday you would have hit 30 a landmark in your life. WE raised a glass to you. To you past, to you present, to you always in our hearts . Happy 30th birthday Darling Andrew from all the family & Friends who will always love you and miss you xxxx

Legendary Career Cut Short

Mark McKee Jul 15, 2010

I am an avid reader of writers like Tom Clancy, James Patterson, Kyle Mills, Barry Eisler, Brad Thor, and Vince Flynn. These men are some of the most well known writers of the genre and have accomplished so much. However, after reading The American, I knew I had discovered the newest and most talented of writers. My heart goes out to his family and friends that have been stripped of so much more than just his talent. He was and is my favorite author and I only wish that the world would have had a chance to experience his ability to the fullest.

My memory

George Thompson May 25, 2010

Like many others I have only just discovered Andrew having just finished reading The Assassin Yesterday (24th May 2010) and having read the preview of The Invisible at the end of the book thought I MUST BUY IT, going on Amazon I am totaly stunned to find out that this super young author has passed away. Who knows what wonderful books he would have written in the future.
I wish only thebest for his family and hope that his ghost writer can do a great job finishing the manuscripts that Andrew has left us all.

Sleep well, Andrew

Kate Cavanaugh Feb 15, 2010

I "discovered" Andrew a few months ago, after reading "The American" I couldn't wait for the next one, and then "the Invisible". I always read the short author notes in the back, and was very confused to see his birth-death dates in the third note. I thought an error had been made...this young man could not have passed away. How very sad..a young man of such promise, living his dream and excelling at such a young age. My prayers and condolences go out to his family and friends. I am so glad his mother is continuing his legacy. What better memorial could he possible have.

I can't believe what I just learned. What a terrible loss for his family. My sincerest condolences to his immediate family. I knew him only from his work but he was a great writer and I am sure a better family man. After reading his 3rd novel, I was hooked and was so looking forward to his next great novel A tragic loss for all of us, his fans, his extended family. Gid Bless You Andrew. May you have eternal peace. You will be greatly missed

I picked up a book by Andrew . a few days ago,it was called the Assassin. After reading a few chapters,I was so amazed by this mans great talent I wanted to find out more about him and looked him up on the computer. Well...... my heart sunk when I learned this young and very very talented author had passed away . I am so glad that his work will now be carried on. Andrew will live on in all of us that have read him and know this great Irish American writer May the power of the love of our heavenly Creator grant Andrew peace and happiness in spirit .

Annie Britton Nice (Apr 22, 2009)

I would like all of Andrews fans and friends to know that Andrew left many unfinished manuscripts, all who knew him well, knew that this was all that Andrew lived for his writing was his number one priority was to produce the best he could. his days and nights where spent on research. When I retrieved his laptop I thought maybe it had been in a fire, BUT the black mark was his own hand prints in the metal, I cried for he loss of him and for the loss of the work he loved. So his agent and I decided that as I had given birth to Andrew he had given birth to Ryan Kealey and his baby must live on. We have now acquired an excellent Ghost writer to complete the manuscripts and so please God next year we will have Andrew Britton Book 4 on the shelf. In the meantime IF you enjoyed Andrews work Please Please add a review to Barnes & Noble or Amazon website as it all helps to push sales and keep his name alive and in the public eye for all future books. I know that this is truly the best thing you could do for Andrew and for his memory and to help me keep him alive for all future generations of young writers who need to read his book and Know his story. Many Many thanks to you all and bless you for your prayers and your kind words at the Biggest loss I have ever known in my lifetime, He was MORE than my son, he was my bes friend and I miss him every minute of every day.

His talent lives on

TK Apr 06, 2009

Just finished "Invisible." Andrew was obviously a very talented writer, and I am going to the bookstore tonight to obtain "The Assassin." I was very sorry to read that Andrew had passed away at such a young age. His all-too brief time was enough for him to leave a literary legacy.

Sleep well Dear Andrew

Dr. Philip B. and Gloria Stern May 31, 2008

Dear Britton Family,
Today was a very sad day for my wife and me and our condolences and heartfelt sorrow goes out to you all.
The story goes like this: I have read Andrew's two previous books, the American and the Assassin.
I had just finished reading The Invisible and I had already concocted a plot in my mind for the next book, so I went to the Web and Google. What I found was utter shock and denial. Oh My Lord, what a loss! We were both in love with Andrew as a new writer and looked forward to his future books. He was a fine human being and will missed by his family and his fans. We are 78 and 82 and feel as is we have lost a grandson.
Sleep well Andrew.
Gloria and Philip Stern

So young
