Fantasy writer Gemmell dies at 57

While I've never actually read his books, I know that he has a big following. I figured someone reading the blog might be interested in his passing. Besides, its a pleasant diversion from the evils of indie gaming.

Fantasy writer Gemmell dies at 57
Fantasy novelist David Gemmell, best known for stories such as Legend and Waylander, has died at the age of 57.

Gemmell had heart bypass surgery two weeks ago and appeared to be making a good recovery, according to his publisher Transworld.

Regardless of whether or not you are a fan, he will be missed.
