http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-12380763 I actually wanted to hear more about Ben and Ned but it looks like their adventures are over now. A very well known author will be missed sorely. |

Hello: I read it when was just posted here but I did not make a reply. I also feel sorry for what happened, I guess many will also feel bad due to all the unfinished plots. But I guess we all agree that he made quite some great stories that will keep marking generations to come. Rest in peace Brian Jacques. |

His reputation is made and secure. One of the best childrens storytellers of the second half of the 20th century imo. you don't sell 20 million books and write 22 stories if demand isn't there |

For the ones I love...

-Bows my head in respect- Such a sad thing, the world losing so great an author. It is some small comfort, however, knowing that his work will live on. RIP, Brian J. |
