    He was an older gent and so I was expecting it.

    Sad though, he really cut the mustard with his writing.

    just read this today--sad day. I think one of the first sci-fi books I read was his martian chronicles....

    and 91 is a really good run (swede by heritage--good genes!), but he will be missed---so many things he thought of and impacts he has had on our world.

    Fahrenheit 451 is one of my favorite books, and I'm glad that there's now an audio edition narrated by Bradbury himself.

    I was teething on Ray Bradbury stories in my childhood. His influence on science fiction literature is far-reaching. I'm sorry he's gone now.

    I bought it recently, haven't had the chance to read it yet.

    I did read the opposite book though, Jennifer Government. It was entertaining. I remember the author acknowledging Fahrenheit 451 as an inspiration.
