Louise Cooper (1952-2009) Very sad to learn from the Louise Cooper message board, that the popular fantasy author who, very early in her career, authored two NEL gothic romances Blood Summer (1976) and its sequel of the In Memory Of Sarah Bailey (1977), died on Tuesday 20th October aged only 57. |

That's a crying shame. So young.

Damn.
I still have my copy of Blood Summer.
Didn't know there was a second book.
Wouldn't mind reading it one day, if anyone can find me a used copy?
I'm happy to pay postage and then send it back afterwards even.
We've noticed over on SF Reader .com that a lot of the old time SF authors have passed away this year.
Like Philip Jose Farmer and quite a number of others.
We shall not see their like again.
They built the foundations upon which all moderrn SF authors now continue with.
The same probably true for horror.
