We've lost one of the creative cornerstones of modern fantasy.

I didn't enjoy her books but I respected her enormously for her work in the community, especially with new authors.
Very sad indeed.
Be at peace Anne.

I didn't read her extensively, by any means, but I did enjoy some of her classic works.
RIP.

Do make the time. The original trilogy (Dragonflight, Dragonquest and The White Dragon) are incredible in their depth and the sense of a world that has suffered a long "dark age" and are just now waking up to the glory that they once were.
Some of the later books get a bit....wonky, but the original trilogy is the stuff of legends.

I just have a lot to read right now.
This Perfect Day
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Trilogy (at the prodding of many friends)
2-3 new stephen king books came out recently (I'm a sucker for King, and I'm not too proud to admit it.)
