ditto for me

it was a chance encounter at the local, poorly stocked library. I read the first and then the other two—probably around 1983 or so—and forever modeled myself after Ged the elder. I also loved the original short story The Word of Unbinding.

Last year, I read her book about the female character from the Aeneid—beautiful work too.

This is indeed very sad. But what a successful, brilliant career.
