Its a fair read but found it similar to 'Night Watch' inasmuch it is a good story rather than a typical Discworld story.
(if that makes sense?) |

At least Terry has set up a contingency plan for when he cant write anymore. He's handing everything to his daughter Rhianna who will continue the Discworld.
Rhianna is a very good writer in her own right. |

"Read Lestat, then Steven king. Isn't he dead now? Im sure I heard it on the news...
No just blind.
it's bothering me now I can't remember the name"
He's not actually blind. He has inherited a genetic trait which may, at some point, cause him to become blind. |

"I've not read much of his recent work. I lost interest for a while when they all seemed to get very samey . If he's got his mojo back then that's all to the good.  "
I lost interest in SK for years, then picked 11/22/63 up cheap in The Works...brilliant book, equally as good, if not better, than some of his classics! |

Anyone read Dr Sleep yet? I've got it for my kindle but think I may read the shining first. It's one of my favourite films but never read the book. King really doesn't like the Kubric version, it'll be interesting to see how different they are.
Oh and yeah get your finger out grrm |

"Im halfway through Brian Lumley's Necroscope series"
I enjoyed them, but felt that he was taking the piss in later books. The actual Whampyrii seemed to be one trick characters and he was inventing psychic abilities at random. However, the earlier books were enjoyable. |
