I would love to read a new novel (whilst Sir Terry has time) about Twoflower and Rincewind. I have got all T.P.'s books as ist editions, both hard cover and as paperbacks, and as much as I love reading about Sam Vimes, a bloke I could really warm to if I met him in the streets of Ankh Morpork, I really, REALLY miss Rincewind, Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg etc. all the original characters. I appreciate Sir T.P's. situation, but a real ripsnorting book with just about everyone of the original characters involved would be a great novel to finish with!
Return To Older Characters?
- Thread starter b.copeland
- Start date
but as per Del's comment lets not write him off yet shall we? 
I think that Rincewind has matured quite a bit. The Last Hero shows him relatively calm and assembled, imho.
That said, I wouldn't know if he would fit into the earlier books now - I tend to believe that Pterry's writing style has also changed quite a lot compared to the earliest books in which Rincewind was prominent.
So, Rincewind would have to change as well, I assume, and he already did so at least a bit for The Last Hero.
Although I've read UA, I don't remember him to be playing much of a (rememberable) role in the book.
But I miss Rincewind very much as well.
But not 4-Eyes.
