I've just found out that one of my favorite fantasy writers passed away. Heroic fantasy at its best, no crappy tolkien folk tales and political intrigues, just pure action and adventure.
If you haven't read it yet, fix that problem now.
What realy gets me, is that if it weren't for the internet and various sci-fi/fantasy forums I would have completely missed it. Some important politician or normal writer/artist dies and the whole world knows it, but if he/she's some speculative fiction author then nobody cares it seems, at least in some countries. Sabbaac pot it would be different with potter's mom.
Here's some links for additional information:
