    David Eddings died.

    I'm surprised that this has not all ready been mentioned but Fantasy author David Eddings recently died.

    Fantasy Author David Eddings Dies At 77

    Not the best choice of links but I couldn't find the original one I used a day or so ago.

    Apologies if this is the wrong section.

    I have tried several times to read Eddings work. I have several of his books. Most I picked up as hardbacks from garage sales and thrift book stores. They are pretty books to decorate any bookshelf. I just could never get into his books. Sparhawk, if I am naming the main character right never intrigued me.
    It is a big loss for the writing community, though.
    Sorry to hear about it.
    “The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on...”

    His books were among the first fantasy I read. Loved him. Sad to see him move on. All of my favorite authors are starting to get old and die now. I really got to start reading some young guys.

    I've read a few of his books. A really good author, in my opinion.
