I just got news of this on Facebook. It's a shame, not simply because any death is sad, but because I had read The Forgotten Beasts of Eld and even recommended it one month. It's one of the best fantasy books I've had the pleasure to read, so much so that I picked up an omnibus of her Riddle-Master trilogy soon after (though I've put off reading it, as usual). She's quite highly regarded in the field, and her passing is a significant loss.

May she always be remembered.
