Terry Pratchett!

On the heels of the good news that Robert Jordan's final novel will be completed comes the less good news that Terry Pratchett has a very rare form of early onset Alzheimer's.(From Diskworld News)

This begs the question of why all the authors that I like seem to be suffering misfortune. First Robert Jordan now this. The only thing I can say is that Harry Turtledove better get himself to a doctor quickly. John Ringo and Max Brooks should probably go too.

In all seriousness, I recommend all of those authors if you like Terry Pratchett. They all have different fantasy and comedy works. Well I find them funny, but not everyone might find a Zombie Survival Guide humourous.
