:confusion-shrug: ask at NADWCON at the Discworld shop either Reb,Ian or Benard himself.

 

[Catch-up]

I'm still waiting for the bestiary they were working on. Any news on that?

 

[Who's Wee Dug]

Best ask Ian in a couple of weeks Susane he was working on it.

 

[Catch-up]

I remember him talking about it last time. I'll pester him when I see him.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Any questions could be Tweeted to Lindsay <?> and/or Terry on Twitter.

 

[Catch-up]

I don't have a Twitter account, so can't pester them there.

Beware of any book with the author's name followed by "Presents." This usually means s/he's whored out her name for someone else's book.

It's got a Paul Kidby cover picture, which IMO is better than the cover picture for Dodger #1.

Depends on what version of Doger you bought Tamar, the slipcase one was quite nice I thought.

Yep just like The World of Poo which wasn't written by Terry this one isn't either.

I just think that as Kidby drew him, Dodger's eyes are a little too far apart. He doesn't look right, to me. The forthcoming Guide to London uses the same model, but the angle is different so it's less obvious to me; that's why I like it better.

Who did write The World of Poo?

The copyright is shared with The Discworld Emporium, so you have a choice of four people besides the other copyright entity of Sir Terry and Lyn. My guess is that Bernard Pearson had a hand in it.

I heard it said with conviction that it was Bernards wife Isobel, who had the biggest hand in it.

 

[The Mad Collector]

Correct the book was mainly written by Isobel with suggestions from Bernard and the odd line from Terry. My copy is signed by Isobel

So... any guesses on which lines in The World of Poo were by Sir Terry?
(Once DGtL comes out we can try to guess which lines Sir Terry wrote for that one, too.)

 

[Owaynott]

Is there likely to be a slipcase edition of Raising Steam guys?

I imagine so. There will be a lot of annoyed people if there isn't.
