Something tragic this way comes

[greatbear]

Author Ray Bradbury has died at 91 years of age.

I know I should read more. I am a voracious reader, to the point where if I have a page turner on hand, I will almost always ignore the rest of the world until I am done. Because of that little quirk, I often avoid reading simply because I don't like being practically non-functional till the last page. Ray Bradbury's work had me neglecting my daily duties on several occasions. It was not a bad thing, however, by far.

Very sad day. But the legacy he left behind will endure.

Have been reading Bradbury's books for over
40 years now.

He was one of the greats.

I read Fahrenheit 451 of course... but I think my favorite of his was "The Electric Grandmother."

Yep, his writing was pretty damn special. I think I read 'Something Wicked This Way Comes' at exactly the right (impressionable) age in my life. Maybe it's a good idea if I picked up one of his books again - he has long been a favorite with me.

Part of my childhood and I think time to revisit.
