Haven't looked at the site for quite a while TBH Maybe his death was fake news or he stopped moving and they just assumed he was dead ?

Wilbur Smith at 88 Have read a little bit of his stuff and it was always good fun. Am a little sad. My favourite author through my teenage years. However it became a case of if you read one you'd read them all. Got a little bored of his Courtneys of Africa saga (for some reason I didn't like the characters or story line) so gave up on him. Did get a lot of enjoyment from his work.

RIP 2021
