Brian Jacques
15th June 1939 - 5th February 2011

The incredible man and author who started it all.
I cried when I found out, it's so sad!
I've been putting off buying the remaining books of his that I don't own, but now I'm going to out and buy them and add them to my collection.
It's just unreal

[Terragon Scrufftail]

I found out really unexpectedly; it was in the 'Farewell to...' column in the People section of The Week and I happened to see the name just as I was about to turn the page. Very sad news for all his fans. Here's hoping that he'll be remembered through his books.
