As a Finn, I of course loved picking out the occasional references to Finnish mythology, but the whole work is so much more than, deep and wise, and somehow achingly familiar. It gave me great comfort at a dark time in my life. Than you, Michael.<br /><br />I loved his other works as well. One of the greats has passed, and the world is a little bit darker now.Markusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-24914437305613326562018-08-30T14:55:57.694+00:002018-08-30T14:55:57.694+00:00I reread the anvil if ice every few years. i enjoy...I reread the anvil if ice every few years. i enjoy it more than lord of the rings. he was a great writer I was hopin g to see some of his great works brought to the big or little screen. even though we weren't aquainted I feel like a good friend has gone.

We have been writing each other over the past quarter of a century and I loved him not just for the great writer he was, but also for his sense of humor and interests we shared. What a generous human being! My thoughts go out to his wife Deb and his close friends in these hard times. <br /><br />@ Allan Scott - thank you, I'm looking forward to the new website!<br /><br />Steve Logan KrebsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-77086621478166153452018-08-15T12:39:27.790+00:002018-08-15T12:39:27.790+00:00He was my best and oldest friend, as well as the k...He was my best and oldest friend, as well as the kind of creative collaborator most of us can only dream about. I'm working on a new memorial website to update and replace the old Zetnet site that has somehow managed to survive for decades - and to which (although I built it) I no longer have access...<br /><br />Allan ScottAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03253887631706560998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-67357843014158292602018-08-14T03:03:56.391+00:002018-08-14T03:03:56.391+00:00Sad news.
