Oh … Now THAT’s another sad one …
Lifelong science fiction fan that I am, I’ve got to admit, I’ve read a certain amount of Anne McCaffrey, in my time.
Mostly her Dragonriders of Pern series, which had both one of the strongest female characters I know I’ve ever seen, Lessa of Bendan Weyr.
So you can imagine my saddest in hearing that Ms McCaffrey had died on Monday, just gone, at the age of 85.
That’s sad.
I know I once met fantasy writer, Storm Constantine who called Ms McCaffrey ‘inspirational’.
I’m also fairly convinced there’s who’d say the same.
All I can do … ?
Is offer my condolences to her family.
AND did up my old copy of Dragonflight …
