Haldeman, PKD, and Ursula K. LeGuin for example. It is also the home of dread Cthugha, one of the Great Old Ones from the Lovecraft Mythos.
Cthugha is described as a fiery sphere. At first I was horrified when I saw these images, "OH NOES! KFUGGY GONNA EET MAI BRANEZ!!"
But then I realized all stars look like fiery spheres, so we have nothing to worry about.
Right?
