    Just don’t read the biography. I just finished it, and while it’s amazing it will leave you devastated.

      GNU PTerry. Just got both biographical books for fathers day. I entirely expect to be crushed, given how big a part of growing up his books were to me, and how devastated I was to watch his decline and eventual passing…

      I’ve hardly been able to read his books since, which is awful.

        My husband got both of those books and I hope to read them. A part of me feels that, if I read them, it will make everything more definite (if you know what I mean). Heck, I haven’t even read the Shepard’s Crown.
