I'll have to think on this one. I can't really say just one discworld book off the top of my head.

Outgrowing him? Really? I've found his latest novels have grown up an awful lot since the early ones... Although still set in the silly silly Discworld that we all know and love, it doesn't half seem like the magic and weirdness is almost normal now (not boring however). Take Night Watch, Monstrous Regiment or Going Postal for example...

Monovie!!! I updated ur password!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anywya, between everyone id liek to make a discworld index for the main site, with a 50 word pot summary for each one, and then main charcters in book, Deat's appearance, memorable moemnts etc
No ratings or anything 'cos that'll just cause a ruck!
I think this would be a decent article + i keep picking up books ive read before reading about 50 pages and then remembering, with a nice reference list those memories can jsut flood back ;D
Ill lay out the article layout, everyone else can make the content. comments please.....

I prefer Robert Rankin to Terry Pratchett, but Pratchett is still great! Monstrous Regiment was really good and i bough Good Omens yesterday after having it recommended.

"The Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse" is all time fav book, there's a copy in Ottakars in ormskirk and most waterstones. Other recommendations are "Fandom of the Operator", "Snuff Fiction" and "The Brentford Chainstore Massacre".

Someone in my seminar said that was their favourite book!  |
