Jenamarie Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 So I guess some of us here are Terry Pratchett fans. What's your favorite book written by him?My answer is Mort, Small Gods, and Good Omens. Quote
Listener Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 They are all good. Every one of them. Has anyone read his book set in Australia? Quote
Bookmeister Posted June 23, 2008 Report Posted June 23, 2008 Night Watch (and the rest of the books with Cdr Vimes, Cpt Carrot, et al), and Going Postal and Making Money. Quote
WANDERER Posted June 24, 2008 Report Posted June 24, 2008 (edited) The Light Fantastic, Mort, Men at Arms, Nightwatch, The Amazing Maurice and the Educated Rodents...they're all good value. I haven't read Making Money yet...He is in the early stages of alzheimers. Below is an article on my favourite unrepentant atheist: I create gods all the time - now I think one might exist | Mail OnlineIt's interesting reading because of his frankness. He talks about asking as a kid what the opposite of a miracle was. The answer received, 'an act of God'. Oh dear. But so much to think about whenever he says something.

MaidservantX Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 I'm supposed to pick ONE?? Ha ha ha. It's been a while so I don't know. But I like whenever he and his wife finally got together. And anything with Carrot in it -- I have a huge crush. Quote
Lolgirl Posted June 26, 2008 Report Posted June 26, 2008 LOL!Oh Carrot is one of the best lol.I'm only just started on his series and it's getting hard for me to stop lol :) Quote
annewandering Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 arg! what a horrible disease for anyone to have. and to have us lose future terry pratchett books makes it ..... arg. one thing about his books is you can go back and read them over and over and still laugh each time. i am dreading having to tell my kids. we will miss your writing, terry pratchett.

WANDERER Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 Having gotten into Pratchett only in the last two years or so and being a prolific reader I've read my way through the lot. I rather enjoy his quirky way of viewing the world through different lenses. His speech to the Alzheimer's Society: Terry Pratchett's Alzheimer's Speech in FullWha Hae (Feegle battlecry). Quote
Elgama Posted November 28, 2008 Report Posted November 28, 2008 I just love the Hogfather and Wyrd Sister - the immortal line offered by Magrat 'anyone would think we were old hags in green blusher' is my favourite in any book -Charley Quote
yenni Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 So I guess some of us here are Terry Pratchett fans. What's your favorite book written by him?My answer is Mort, Small Gods, and Good Omens.I have tried many times to read Terry Pratchet because I hear how good his books are. Sadly I have not been able to finish one. Just not my style I guess. I do on the other hand love Neil Gaiman who he co-wrote Good Omens with. There is not one Gaiman book I haven't been able to finish *except* Good Omens... Quote
