Another of the great fantasy writers has left this life. FIrst his wife 2 years ago, now him.

If you haven't read his books, I strongly suggest doing so.

HE was.  I've read through his books so many times they're falling apart.  I was quite saddened to hear this news this morning.

Which was followed by the news of the death of David Carradine.

I am so sad to hear this. David and Leigh were my favorite authors. Most of my toons names were derived from one of their series. At least he got to do what he enjoyed for a very long time, and the world is a better place because of it.
