And yes, Jack, who is 92. He’s not writing any more, but he’s done extraordinary work.

…and of course, Jack Vance.

A few years ago my dad was in Colombo visiting his sister and decided to call Sir Arthur to say hello[!]. They ended up talking for half-an-hour and several months later, Dad was surprised to find an inscribed hc of 3001 which had just been released. A treasured item in his library.

R.I.P., Sir Arthur. A fine gentleman.
