One of my favorite authors. I just feel sad now.
Thank you for everything, Sir Terry.

*sigh*

We all knew it was coming sooner than later, but it still sucks.  Sir Terry, I will go back and re-read all of your books in the relatively near future.  And then I will be sad that there will be no more.

I've mostly switched to buy ebooks.  But that one I'll buy in hardcover the day it comes out.
