Although it's not been officially confirmed, it seems that the news that Anne McCaffrey passed away yesterday from a stroke is correct.
She was 85, and still very active in the world of SF/F.
Her Pern books are some of my most beloved fantasy/sci-fi stories, and it is sad news that she has passed.
EDIT: It has been officially confirmed with her publisher.
*MySmiley* No! Not the gum drop buttons!
Thank you for the stories, Anne McCaffrey.

I've never read any of her books... maybe I should. R.I.P., in any case. *NM*

I read my first Anne McCaffrey book at age 10 in 1978 (yes, dating myself)
