George McDonald Fraser is dead

George MacDonald Fraser, 82, author of ‘Flashman’ novels – International Herald Tribune

George MacDonald Fraser, a British writer whose popular novels about the arch-rogue Harry Flashman followed their hero as he galloped, swashbuckled, drank and womanized his way through many of the signal events of the 19th century, died Wednesday on the Isle of Man.

This is very sad news. He’s an author whose oeuvre I’d like to own in its entirety.
