I have more than a few Fred Saberhagen books on my shelf (yet only a fraction of his body of work), and in this I’m not alone. Thus, it with a sense of loss that I help spread the word about his passing.
He is another one of those writers who made an impression not only on millions of readers, but so many other writers as well. In the next few days you’ll probably see more than a few authors blog about how Fred Saberhagen inspired or influenced their own careers. I mourn the novels never written, but at least your legacy is being carried on by some of those you touched. Enjoy your place in paradise, Mr. Saberhagen. You earned it.
