Fun Stuff > ENJOY

Jackie Blue:
It's funny, while I also thought Night Watch was amazing, in general I'm not that much of a Vimes fan, especially lately when there's all that "struggling with The Beast" stuff going on. As far as major protagonists go, I'd really much rather see another Granny Weatherwax book before another Watch book (though, IIRC, Pratchett has "retired" the Witches, because "nothing can stand up to Granny").
Discworld also needs more Susan.
The next adult Disc book is presumably going to be Unseen Academicals, which is about football at Unseen U. Sounds like a funny premise, but I'm worried it will be a bit too light-hearted, and it will delay the writing of Raising Taxes. Hopefully Pterry won't start getting sicker any time too soon. :-(
supersheep:
I always forget about The Fifth Elephant whenever I think of the Watch books. I never really liked the Witches that much compared to the others, to be honest. (Which, given that they're Pratchett books, still means that I like them more than most other books...)
Alex C:
I had a friend who reported lots of bad things about Going Postal and Making Money. Which was convenient, actually; now I know not to ask their advice on anything important.
onewheelwizzard:
Going Postal, Making Money, and The Truth were the books that alerted me to the fact that Discworld books are even better now than they were when I started reading them. Terry Pratchett has literally only gotten better with time, and the books he's written about the development of Ankh-Morpork as a modern city are the best examples of this. I don't think anyone has ever done anachronism as well.
Good call, Whipstitch.
Johnny C:
I loved The Truth.
