General Posted August 30, 2010 Hi! I'm the Discworld fan, too! :) My favourite series is Guards, then Wizards. Craracters: Carrot, Ridcully, Cranny, well, I can hardly find a Pratchett's character whom I don't like. Be sure to see L-space's DW creations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

General Posted August 30, 2010 Yes, that's great news, but I wont' read it until I real the first two Tiffany's books (currently reading the Hogfather) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dunjohn Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) Yeah, I love them, but I haven't read all of them. I'm a bit weirded out by the notion that, when I've read the most recent one, I can't simply wander into a shop to get the next one. So, I'm trying not to catch up with the good Mr. Pratchett. The next one I have to read is Making Money. Funding issues mean I'm rereading old ones in no particular order at the moment. I'm nearly re-finished Mort. I read Hogfather and Soul Music last week. Probably Reaper Man next. It's probably easy to guess that my favourite character is DEATH, but I also like the City Watch, Lord Vetinari and the Ankh-Morpork Times crew. Tiffany, is she the one with the little blue guys? Edited September 1, 2010 by Dunjohn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam Vimes Posted August 30, 2010 Yes Dunjohn it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dunjohn Posted September 1, 2010 I haven't read any of those, just a preview chapter in the back of one of the more recent mainline books. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L-space Posted September 1, 2010 I haven't read any of those, just a preview chapter in the back of one of the more recent mainline books. Well, you might want to give it a go. They are certainly worth it. I just finished Wintersmith, for the second time. Still my favorite are the Watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr jones Posted January 9, 2011 Hey everybody. After seeing that, exept me, there are a lot of Pratchett and Discworld fans around here, I thought it was time to unite! In my Small Gods thread Sam Vimes suggested to start a little fanclub of our own. So here it is, the Eurobricks Discworld Fanclub. Here all the lovers of the series can talk about their favorite books in the series, their favorite characters and so on... Have fun! PS: to the mods, if there is allready such a thread, then I'm really sorry. I couldn't find one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam Vimes Posted January 9, 2011 Umm.. Great Idea but I did make a Discworld Topic a few months back if you want to use that one instead.. about a club would be a good idea! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clone OPatra Posted January 9, 2011 And now they're merged. Carry on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dazmundo Posted January 9, 2011 And now they're merged. Carry on! Hi I'm a big Discworld fan, I have almost all of the books, they are such engrosing stories. Think that my favourite group are the Watch books, (I even directed a play of 'Men at Arms'), I just finished re-reading 'Guards Gurads' and a couple of days ago I picked up a cheap copy of 'The Wit & Wisdom of the Discworld' in the WHSmiths sale D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam Vimes Posted January 10, 2011 About a club... what I would like to do is either make a web site for Lego and Discworld Fans or do something about that, maybe a bunch of us could start messageing each other about something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
