Anne McCaffrey has died.

Her books had a lot of problematic elements to them, and I will never deny that.

Still, they formed the core of my adolescence, and I will never not love her for how she treated the military in her books — neither wholly good nor wholly evil, but the sum of the people within.

RIP, Dragonlady.

I've got several side characters I wrote about as Crafters in the offline group I was in.

Man, now I feel like I need to go re-read a bunch of her books!
