Anyone into Terry Pratchett?

[MickeyPaul]

Shit, oops. On topic. I've never read a Terry Pratchett book but he seems mighty popular. 45 million books sold aint bad. What Seen wouldn't give for half that!

[keemanan]

aye mick , cant understand why seen aint selling like hot cakes , surely the 'buy my book you cnuts' campaign stratergy is a surefire winner.

All these years and poor Nigel Planer is still 'Neil from The Young Ones

I think that's what it said on the box too mick , as read by Neil from the young ones

And my pic wasnt what is being posted. I'll take it down as its just a grim reaper.

Thank fuck for that Komp as I thought you'd lost it. The grim reaper has a scythe btw.

This is the last time I start a thread on something I'm not really interested in for the sake of conversation you piss taking cunts.

You can talk amongst yourselves from now on

[kompressaur]

we do ODM. No one else is posting. Im just getting back into the swing a bit and taking over. People only post when i aint here

Cheers for that ODM, good news that. I used to love the Discworld series when i was about 14 or 15. I read them all and still have them all although i havent read one for a good few years now.

Very funny books if you like your quirky humour. I wouldve thought anyone who likes Douglas Adams would also like Pratchett. Not for everyone but theyre good stories in their own right as well as being very funny. Some very nice themes on religion in there as well. The Discworld is a flat planet which sits upon elephants backs who are standing on a giant turtle who swims through space for those who didnt know!

Aye Death is a great character, used to look through the book for the parts written in CAPITALS to see when he was gona show up so its good to see theyve chosen to make one with him as the lead. Death and Rincewind were my favourites. I wouldve rather have them make Mort than Hogfather though but you cant complain.

Im glad theyre not making one about the Witches they used to piss me off a bit actually reading those ones.

I read only 5 or 6 books from him when i was younger, but i never like Pratchetts book too much

That's ridiculous Mr M. Then again, I know that there are people on this board who are into their religious fiction, so they should appreciate it
