Colin Harvey RIP

[Ian Whates]

It's with great sadness I report the death of British SF author Colin Harvey. A friend, and a lovely man, Colin was hospitalised following a massive stroke on Sunday and passed away last night.

Colin was the author of several novels, including the critically acclaimed Winter Song (2009), which was distributed free to all BSFA members, and Damage Time (2010).

He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Very sad morning

I only met Colin once, at the Angry Robot signing in Birmingham, but he was lovely. We had a long chat about BristolCon - won't be the same without him there...

Gosh, that's a terrible shock.

Sympathies to Colin's family.

Haven't heard of him, surfed his site and saw he was young still. Very sad indeed. Must have a lookout for his books.

 

[Patrick Mahon]

Sad news indeed - I got the copy of "Winter Song" that was sent out to BSFA members in 2009, and really enjoyed it.

As Stephen said, sympathies to Colin's family.

I read Winter Song and enjoyed its worldbuilding and pace immensely.My sympathies go out to his friends and family.
