Ray, I want to thank you for the many years of enjoyment you gave me through your novels. I began reading your books when I was sixteen. I had to catchup because I was 4 years and three books behind. When Betrayal at Krondor came out, I was first in line to buy it and spent hours living in your universe through the game.
Recently a very good friend of mine committed suicide. The demons he fought, he just couldn't beat. He was a huge fan of yours. He often reminded me of Nakor in that he had an insatiable desire to do stuff and his joy in learning was unmatched. We often discussed your books and that it was in those first discussions where we became friends. Unfortunately he will not be able to share in the end of the Magician series, but I believe he would say it was a very satisfying end to a huge part of our lives. Thank you Ray. Thank you for the joy you brought a couple of sixteen year old boys, who grew into men and never stopped enjoying the words you put on paper. I look forward to entering into the next chapter with you. Scott -- Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead
