Ok well Loki suggested it so here we are, a Discworld thread! And I wanna complain! lol. Terry was supposed to be signing his new book at Waterstones Book Shop in Hull a few fridays back, and i wasn't going to be able to get there coz I was gonna be at Mole's. But you could ring and reserve a signed copy. Clever me lost the number so I couldn't reserve one. But then it turned out Terry was ill that week and didn't go to any signings! Doh! |

Heh...since poor Pev's topic is apparently sliding away in non-replyness i figured i'd make a statement here. 
Discworld ownz u!  Read the first 6 volumes by now, and i must say that not any of them ever bored me. Painful as it may be to admit that Pev has good taste. 
Anyhoo..let's hope Loki payes more than an occasional visit.

Oh - just saw the coolest Terry Pratchet [sp?] quote yesterday. My sister plays summer soccer with a friend of mine for the Auckland University's Geography Department team - his mum is a senior tutor - my dad used to be a senior lecturer. Anyway - their team Tshirt has the national geographic symbol on the front - but with Geography Association instead of National Geographic - And this quote on the back.... "Geography is simply physics slowed down with a couple of trees stuck in it"

Got the title now, and it is: "Monstrous Regiment" Since it does not seem like a Rincewind book, I am probably just going to look it over. |

Besides from Terry's new book, what else to say? Terry seems to be slowing down the rate of Discworld books coming out, and almost none of them (the new ones) don't have Rincewind. It's a conspiracy! |

night watch is apparently how Vimes got into the Watch. and can apparently be confusing. Terry isn't slowing down at all, he's releasing a new discworld book every May and every November. Nightwatch last Nov, Wee Free Men last May and now Monstrous Regiment. (out in oct actually but ).
no i'm not a member of the yahoo discworld group, what's the link? i do get a monthly discworld e-mag type thing though that's quite cool |

Dunno if this is interesting information for anyone but since i was bored and i was just surfing the net i stumbled onto this: http://discworld.imaginary.com:5678/ Maybe someone is interested, maybe not. In case your wondering: it`s a discworld MUD i believe. |
