"Robert B. Parker, the blunt and beloved crime novelist who helped revive the hard-boiled genre and branded a tough guy of his own through his "Spenser" series, has died. He was 77."
God-damnit!! Now I'm really bummed out. He was the last of the great private-eye writers, now we have nobody to step into his shoes (and even though I like a lot of mystery writers, there's no character that even comes close to Spenser.)

R.I.P. Robert. You gave me lots of fun times with Spenser and Hawk, and lately Jesse Stone. You will be missed.
