As you’ve no doubt heard, Ray Bradbury died earlier today. Robert McCammon posted the following on Twitter today:
Robert McCammon (@MacCammon)
6/6/12 7:40 PMA sad day. Ray Bradbury was my writing hero. I loved “The Lake”. It brought me to tears and I wished I could create that same bittersweet emotion. But he wrote so many great things, and left such fantastic stories and characters…. Today the summer sun still shines and tonight the summer moon will glow…but the world is different—and a little colder—without him.

Birmingham author Robert McCammon continues Matthew Corbett series with “The Providence Rider”
On April 22, 2012, Robert McCammon was a guest speaker of the Huntsville Literary Association. He spoke at the Huntsville-Madison County Library in Huntsville, AL, and read the first chapter of the fifth Matthew Corbett novel, The River of Souls, which he had just started writing.
Video of the presentation can be found on YouTube. The reading from The River of Souls begins at about 13:35. The sound quality isn’t quite as good as the video quality (which is better than the thumbnail below suggests!), but it’s not too bad. Enjoy!
Robert McCammon will be signing copies of The Providence Rider (and other books) at the Alabama Booksmith in Birmingham, AL, on Wednesday, May 30, 2012, at 4 PM.
If you can’t make the signing but would like a signed copy of the book, visit the Alabama Booksmith website for details on how you can reserve a signed copy. They will also have copies of all of the in-print McCammon titles available for sale.
