Re: Discworld by Terry Pratchett
How great is this!!!! I thought I was the only one past fifty ever to read Terry Pratchett.Rincewind is my favourite too (and the luggage), since they appeared in the two first books my daughter gave me for x-mas many years ago.
Since then I think I have read most of his books - some from the library, but I also have bought quite a few myself.
It was so sad to hear about his illness - but at least he has given loads of people great joy by writing these books.

Terry Pratchett is Brill. And is still going strong with 2 books a year, despite the Alzheimers. But the best book for me is the one he co-wrote with Neil Gaiman - Good Omens.One of the few authors I can re-read. ( that and Jim Butcher`s Dresden Files)
I like the Witches best. Lawks!
