Ur Locus:
 
"Author Joel Rosenberg, 57, died June 2, 2011 following respiratory problems 
that led to a heart attack, brain damage, and organ failure. Rosenberg is best 
known for his Guardians of the Flame fantasy series, but he wrote nearly 30 
books, including SF and mysteries.
Rosenberg’s first story was “Like Gentle Rains” in Asimov’s (1982), and his 
first novel was The Sleeping Dragon, beginning the Guardians of the Flame 
series about roleplaying gamers drawn into a fantasy world, which continued for 
nine more volumes from 1983-2003. Other series include the Keepers of the 
Hidden Ways trilogy, the Metzada series, the D’Shai sequence, the Mordred’s 
Heirs series, and the Sparky Hemingway mysteries.
Born May 1, 1954 in Winnipeg Canada, Rosenberg grew up in North Dakota and 
Connecticut, and attended the University of Connecticut. He was also well known 
as a gun instructor and 2nd Amendment activist. He is survived by his wife of 
32 years, Felicia Herman, and their two daughters."
