I'm always up for requests.

I'm trying to go in order, but I might just say 'fuck it'.

# better to go in order
some characters undergo heavy development through the books

I need to buy more.

# with the first couple of books it doesn't really matter
but the newer ones should be read in order, at least those concerning the same cast of characters, like the watch

and they are in order, yes

# *claps*
So far my favourite one would be Night Watch or The Truth.

In fact, the Truth is my favourite so far.

# i've read them all, by dint of the missus owning them, and not having anything of my own to read at the time
they're fairly accesible and entertaining

# I think so.
Certainly Pratchett's one of the few authors to make me laugh out loud whilst reading. Those books and Spike's books about when he was in the war.

I just want to direct the next big budget drama they do for discworld- or do the casting so I can get Mark Heap as Rincewind.

# Am I the only person who thinks Terry Pratchett is a shit-awful author who isn't actually funny?
I should mention that I read more than a couple of his books before reaching this conclusion.

# I'd guess you'd be in the minority when it comes to people who have read the books.
Most people who I know that have love him, but it's all subjective, innit?

Who do you like then? Don't say Tom Clancy.

# I would have thought so.
Many people consider much of my reading material quite highbrow and inaccessible yet even I love to have a spot of escapism with Pratchett now and again. It allows for you to be a schoolboy again without any of the embarrassment.

Some people think Stephen King is a literary genius. I happen to think he's a one trick pony who has no idea how to end a story. Personal tastes may vary.

# i agree on the stephen king bit.
i liked the kubrick version of the shining infinitly better than the stephen king version, and if the movie is better than the book it means something right?

# Have you read The Green Mile or The Shawshank Redemption?
Apart from these two, I'd agree. Total shite.
(I helped save b3ta! fuscous, Fri 15 Jun 2007, 15:20, archived)
# No, I totally agree
I've read quite a few, thinking with so many fans there must be something there. I'm can count the things I found funny on one hand. In my opinion he's a poor man's Douglas Adams.
