He was 91. He wrote Fahrenheit 451 and The Maritan Chronicles.
I loved the Martian Chronicles. I didn't read the other but saw the movie.

His books were the first science fiction I ever read, at the age of 11. Those from the 1950's science fiction age will never be replaced.

Me too, I devoured his books growing up, short stories, Martian Chronicles, Fahrenheit 451, whatever I could find.
Then loved seeing my children do the same. Great writer!

Ray, Robert Heinlein, Issac Asimov and Arthur C Clarke. Giants of the golden age of sci-fi.
