Philip José Farmer has passed away.

Riverworld remains one of the few series that I'll re-read every few years.

Oh no. I re-read Riverworld every few years as well. It's good every time.

Somehow, I never could get into the first book of that series. I did like A Barnstormer in Oz, though...

He did so much more than Riverworld...

Dude invented the Wold Newton and wrote The Other Log of Phileas Fogg, one of the best books ever IMHO.

I know Riverworld is his famous invention, but I believe the Wold notion is such perfect craftsmanship and used to such perfection by Alan Moore in recent years.

I feel terrible. I thought he was long dead.
