Banananana Daquiri, Anyone? (Pratchett Fans Unite)

Er, anyone here a Terry Pratchett fan? I would guess that Growltigger is, from his sig, and his recent comment about a shower button in the Phong's head that sounds awfully like a certain feature of a certain boarded-up washroom made by one B. S. Johnson at the UU . . .

Yes, I'm a fan, but I haven't read all of his books because I'm buying them in the order they were published. The next one on my list is Reaper Man.

Gwaihirr, I am a major league Pratchett fan, and have ALL his books (save for The Truth and Nightwatch) signed by the man himself.

Personal fave I think is a three way tie between Pyramids, Small Gods and Men at Arms...

I just love the opening seen of Pyramids with Teppic arming himself with all those weapons and then falling over (I can see that in a movie), and what with "the shouting into the bulrush episode".. bloody marvellous!

Hello, this is my first post on these Boards.
As anyone who has read Reaper Man should know i am a Terry Pratchett fan

(a very good book if you like Death). I think ive read most of the Discworld books, but i dont make lists so i dont know.

(Memo to self: re-read Pyramids... as i dont remember alot of it.)

i can consider myself a fan. i've read many books but they were in Russian and they werent that many (that is, the only ones i could buy in Israel). Right now i see the series are quite huge but from what i know one has to have a very good understanding of english to enjoy these books judging by the deep wordgames in the russian Version. i'll get back on the series soon enough myself.
