Robert Asprin, creator and co-author of the MythAdventures series with Jody Lynn Nye, and editor of the Thieves’ World anthologies with Lynn Abbey, passed away on May 22 of a heart attack at his home in New Orleans.
For those in the New Orleans area, there will be a “spontaneous wake” in his honor on Sunday, May 25, at Fahy’s Irish Pub, the corner of Toulouse and Burgundy Streets in the French Quarter of New Orleans, “from 9:00 PM until the last person leaves.”

That’s a shame. He was awful young to leave. I got to meet Mr. Asprin when he was doing a signing a few years ago at Dragoncon. Busy as he was, he took a few moments to answer a question I had for him. A great contributor to the genre, he will be missed.
