    Defo

    Hmm, I may be wrong about carpet people...I thought it was part of the Truckers series?

    Loved that book but didn't realize that there is more Tiffany Aching books to be read. Must check out Terry Pratchett wedsite and get a complete list of his books.

    And I'm sure you're right... There are probably a few more we're missing. Sai Pratchett is almost as prolific as Sai King, huh?
    So true TP is just like SK when you think you only have a few more of his books to read to finish his collection then you discover hes written about a dozen more books in the mean time . Reading can be an expensive hobby .

    Now I've got a problem. I'm trying to remember something Pratchett once wrote in one of his books. It was something about when people die, they'll end up in places they expect themselves to end up in. Hell, Heaven, Middle-Earth, like that. Mayhap someone knows what I'm talking about and can point me into right direction? Please.

    By the way, I'm a big fan of Pratchett.

    I've read nearly all of them over and over. They always cheer me up. (Incidentally Terry Pratchett used to live about twenty miles away from me, not sure whether he's moved south now though.)

    I cried when I found out about his dementia. There was a doccumentary on a while ago and he was saying that he still has so many books inside his head but can't get them out properly any more.

    I need to read these books from the beginning. I've played the pc game Discworld Noir, and i absolutely LOVED it!

    Books i do wanna read in the series are:
    The Colour of Magic (because that's where it starts)
    The Light Fantastic (because it's an actual sequal to TCoM)
    The Fifth Elephant (just for the title)

    And there's one i really, REALLY do wanna read but i have no idea what the title is. All i know is that it involves the 5th Horseman of the Apocalypse. (Who left before the other 4 became famous! )

    Discworld is amazing. Read it. Pratchett's got a wicked sense of humour, yet he manages to incorporate drama and characters which you get to really care about.
