R is for R.I.P.

Another literary giant has gone to the Great Library in the Sky.

American fantasy, horror, science fiction, and mystery writer Ray Bradbury has died at age 91.

Bradbury was one of the most celebrated 20th century writers, best known for his 1953 novel Fahrenheit 451 and for the science fiction stories gathered together as The Martian Chronicles (1950) and The Illustrated Man (1951).

Many of Bradbury's works have been adapted into television shows or moving pictures.

I personally love this quote from Bradbury:

"I couldn't go to college, so I went to the library."

Amen.
