Charles N. Brown, 72, Locus publisher, editor, and co-founder, died peacefully in his sleep July 12, 2009 on his way home from Readercon.
I’ve been a subscriber of Locus for quite a few years now, and his columns were always informative and entertaining. From my understanding of Locus, Charles was the heart and soul of the magazine. I hope it can continue without him at the helm… it would be a wonderful legacy.
