Obituary of British sf author Edmund Cooper, who died aged 55. Between 1954 and 1980, Edmund Cooper published thirty novels and collections. None of his books appear to be in print. Cooper's "A Far sunset", was the first science fiction novel I read, and I liked it. But for Cooper, it is unlikely that I would have read other sf novels.
