Thanks for the link Egwene. I hadn't heard about it. Very sad news. He was still so young and what a loss to the fantasy world. :cry:

It's a crying shame; Gemmell was a good writer and, by all accounts, a good man as well. Rest in peace.

he created one of my favourite characters i hope he rests well

was devastated when i heard about him.

I wouldn't even know about his death if I didn't surf on this board. My first fantasy book was written by him and Waylander is one of my favourite literature protagonists. May his spirit live on in his books.

Rest in peace.
