Sadness: Philip Jose Farmer
Hugo award winning author, Philip Jose Farmer died Wednesday. He was 91.
books were some of the first science fiction I ever read.
I haven't even read all of his books yet -- very sad as well, but he passed away so peacefully. What a lovely, full life and a good way to go.
ReplyDeleteI've never had the pleasure of reading him before but it's always sad when we lose a legend :(
