Title: RIP L. Neil Smith Post by: Trevor on October 07, 2021, 03:10:57 AM The author of one of my favorite sci-fi novels The Probability Broach - which taught me quite a bit about American history - has passed away at the age of 75. :bluesad:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Probability_Broach (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Probability_Broach) He had a great turn of phrase, especially where the Denver cop on a murder case goes to visit a political organization in the city and he describes their offices like this: "The place was freshly painted and didn't smell of p*ss like the rest of the building". :buggedout: https://locusmag.com/2021/08/l-neil-smith-1946-2021/ (https://locusmag.com/2021/08/l-neil-smith-1946-2021/) |
