Tony Hillerman RIP

Tony Hillerman has died at age 83. I greatly enjoyed reading his novels about Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee. The Navajo background of his mysteries gave them an historical and anthropological edge over most other fiction in the genre. He incorporated various elements of Navajo history and culture into his plots and character development in a very entertaining manner.
