Ray Bradbury, 'master of science fiction', has died at the age of 91.

'By many estimations Bradbury was the writer most responsible for bringing modern science fiction into the literary mainstream. His name would appear near the top of any list of major science-fiction writers of the 20th century, beside those of Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Robert A. Heinlein and the Polish author Stanislaw Lem.' - Wall Street Journal

Original, eccentric and prolific, he sold over 8 million copies of his books, in 36 languages! Check out 'Marionettes Inc' (which, you can hear a little of here: http://prostopleer.c...s/3543622qrMQ ), 'The Martian Chronicles' and 'Farenheit 451'
