Andre Norton, a very popular SciFi author, has died today.
Science fiction author Andre Norton, who wrote the popular “Witch World” series of books, died today at her home in Murfreesboro. She was 93.The “Witch World” series, which detailed life on a planet reachable only through metaphysical gateways, included more than 30 novels.
Her last complete novel, “Three Hands of Scorpio,” is set to be released next month.
The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America recently created the Andre Norton Award for young adult novels, and the first award will be presented in 2006.
I’ve read several of her books over the years. At least she lived a very long life!
