Ben Bova R.I.P.

R.I.P. Ben Bova
November 8, 1932 - November 29, 2020

Ben Bova passed away on November 29 at the age of 88. In addition to authoring a large number of sci-fi short stories and novels, and nonfiction articles on a variety of scientific topics, he was an influential editor for Analog and Omni magazines.

While I can't say I have an extensive experience in reading and reviewing Bova's novels, I found his Young Adult novel City of Darkness, published in 1976, to be a memorable entry in the the science fiction of the 1970s.
