The Roberts

The Roberts was published as a novella in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. Tachyon Publications issued the story as a 90 page chapbook which was distributed for free. Not even Michael Blumlein himself regards this work as a "novel". The anonymous contributor keeps inserting this story as a novel in this article here. --Gereon K.

Bibliography

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for organising short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.

Is Blumlein dead?

I have seen several notices of the author's passing through social media posts. For example, Rudy Rucker.

However, I can't find confirmation of this here, or from what seems to be Blumlein's official site. Doctorbryannemo (talk) 17:19, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This might count as confirmation: https://deaddeath.com/michael-blumlein-dead-at-71-legendary-author-has-died/ --Gereon K. (talk) 17:13, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
