Your passing came with an insolent, media-deaf blind eye, but for a throng of grateful admirers, you were the supreme, science-fiction scholar who ushered them down roads both audacious and prodigious.
Among your many sagacious works, there is the Immortals (the basis for the ABC's television series); Star Bridge; the Millennium Blues; the Dreamers; the End of the Dreams; the Listeners; Gift from the Stars; the Fortress World; Crisis!; the Burning; Powder Keg; the Joy Makers; Star Trek: the Joy Machine (based on Theodore Sturgeon's unfilmed treatment); Kampus; the Witching Hour; the Burning; Breaking Point; Some Dreams Are Nightmares; Future Imperfect; Human Voices; Transcendental; Transgalactic; Transformation; the Magicians and its related Sine of Magus.
Your words have (and always shall) reverberate, Mr. Gunn, exceeding beyond any mere epitaph. Readers of the future, therefore, are fated to praise your foundation as much as those of the past and present, savoring each creative crevasse carved by your sharp and illuminating intellect.
