Definitely one of the old masters of Science Fiction. He had been sick for a few years, but it still a sad passing. Slaughterhouse Five is definitely up there on my list of must read classics.

Here is a bio if your interested in reading it.

I remember seeing the Slaughterhouse Five movie back in college.  Great film.  A true master writer.  He will be missed.

A great Sci-Fi original. I read "The Sirens Of Titan" and "Cat's Cradle".
