Robert Sheckley (1928-2005)

The news of Robert Sheckley's death is sad, indeed. Sheckley's work brought so much laughter, so much joy for so long.

Other people will have much more to say than I, because Sheckley's career was a long one, and his influence tremendous. The man is gone, but his stories remain, and they can continue to make us smile and chuckle and think.
