io9.com/rip-sir-terry-pratchett-1948-2015-1691042794When it comes to people I've never met, there have only been a handful of deaths that deeply affected me. Stevie Ray Vaughan was one when I was in high school. Neil Armstrong hit me hard back in 2012. And today, the news of Sir Pterry really shook me up. If you like MST3K, you're gonna love Discworld.

A true genius, a philosopher, a man who made books that'll make you feel good.

Yeah. His books pulled off the difficult trick of going from being comic parodies to being biting insights into our own world. And he could turn a phrase like no one else.
I'm actually just starting to read Raising Steam. Started last week, haven't gotten very far yet sadly.
