Roger Zelazny to be inducted into Science Fiction Hall of Fame

Locus Online reports that Hugo and Nebula Award-winning science fiction and fantasy writer Roger Zelazny (1937–1995) will be inducted into the Science Fiction Museum's Hall of Fame in Seattle in June 2010. Zelazny’s classic short story “A Rose for Ecclesiastes,” set on the Red Planet and first published in the November 1963 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, is one of my favorite pieces of Martian SF&F!
