Default Harlan Ellison and Car Wars

Legendary science fiction author Harlan Ellison who wrote one of the foundational short stories of Car Wars, "Along the Scenic Route," has passed away at the age of 84. Barnes & Noble reported this sad news on Twitter.

"Along the Scenic Route" was published in the anthologies "The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World" and "Death on Wheels".

Impossibly, Harlan Ellison, who relished his status as science fiction & fantasy's chief curmudgeon and controversial, celebrated raconteur, has died. He was 84.

This is a piece we published last year, reflecting on his storied career: http://bit.ly/2rRRUwA

There is a discussion thread for Ellison's death in Geek Culture and I would prefer not to split that conversation.
