According to [livejournal.com profile] shsilver, Robert Lynn Asprin died today. Ah, well - at least I'll be able to read all the Myth books now.

I trust the messenger, but have not been able to find independent confirmation. There is no mention of cause of death (although, from other people's comments, this was a surprise).

I've heard natural causes while sleeping. I'll confirm this in the morning.

His website carries the news.

Robert Asprin (1946-2008)

On May 22, 2008, Bob passed away quietly in his home in
New Orleans, LA. He had been in good spirits and working
on several new projects, and was set to be the Guest of Honor
at a major science fiction convention that very weekend.
He is survived by his mother, his sister, his daughter and his
son, and his cat, Princess, not to mention countless friends and fans and numerous legendary fictional characters.

He will be greatly missed.
