Here after he passed away...

I see I'm not the only one who rushed here to watch this video again after learning he passed away today. I've been making my way through his entire bibliography over the past few years ever since originally watching this video. Indeed, he was amazingly versatile -- I cannot believe the same author could write Song of Kali/Carrion Comfort and then turn around and write the Hyperion Cantos. Hopefully we will finally get Omega Canyon at some point. RIP.

Frankly, Dan Simmons’s grocery list is probably more interesting than most people’s novels. I love him.

I recently read Hyperion, and after the first story I just knew I’d be spending a lot more time Dan Simmons! I’m currently reading Song of Kali, and I’ve loved it. Might try Summer of Night or The Terror next. Thank you for your videos sir!

i love not only your insights and potential openings for how to get into difficult authors/works, but also the range of humor you throw in, it's not overwhelming in the least, but BOY HOWDY is it effective.
