Very very sad, I've spent a lot of time in the company of his books. His grandson said to read his work was to know the man, and from what I've read, he was a hell of a man.

I enjoyed Fahrenheit 451, but The Martian Chronicles bored me rigid.
I do morn the passing or Bradbury however, largely because of his short story The Pedestrian, which I originally read as a teenager in an English lesson (and I still have the photocopied version of the story I was given that day). Bradbury taught me there was more to science fiction than fast ships and ray guns, and for that I thank him. |

I shook his hand in Atlanta sometime in the 90s.
Such a loss. |

A character who fascinated many, thanks to the book 'Wiseguy' (great read) and the film based on it 'Goodfellas' (great watch). |

Appeared in films with a bunch of my musical heroes, as in addition to appearing in the three Beatles films, he also popped up in 'Under The Cherry Moon'. |
