Sad news for Sci-Fi lovers, Harry Harrison died today aged 87.

I don't know if any of you have read the DeathWorld or Stainless Steel rat books, but they are well worth a look.

I've read every one of the SSR books many times. Good stuff.

The first of the DeathWorld books is now at Project Gutenberg.

Loads of formats available, even Mobi with pictures.
