Snuff

[pip]

Sounds like a reasonable timeline. Plenty of time to re read all of the watch books again in preperation.

 

[DaveC]

Remember there is the Long Earth project to work on as well so he needs to get this one out of the way. There may be two books a year (or getting back towards that) but they won't both be Discworld

Long Earth?

Is that to do with Nation? I haven't read it yet.

 

[The Mad Collector]

No Long Earth is a proposed series of Science Fiction rather than Fantasy books Terry is working on with Stephen Baxter

 

[pip]

The supposed release date of the first long earth book of two is Spring 2012.
I'm fairly sure there's a link to the press release on this site somewhere.
a bit of a change from the discworld books.
might be closer to the likes of Strata.

 

[DaveC]

Sounds interesting...haven't heard anything abount it here before.

 

[pip]

Heres the link to the announcement from transworld.

Might be time to start up its own thread anyway.

The release date stated shouldn't interfere too much with Snuff anyway.

In Terrys' first klatch at convention he described Snuff as 'a sort of sequel to Thud' sound good to me

Ahh. Thud is one of my least favourite of the books.

 

[pip]

But Thud was another in a long line of fantastic Watch Books.

I suppose everyone is entitled to an opinion

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Indeed we are!

I like the Watch books, but Thud just didn't do it for me.

 

[poohcarrot]

Have to agree with Bouncy on this one. Thud is my least favourite Watch book.

 

[pip]

Have to say given the choice I would probably go for any of the other watch books i suppose.
still think the new book will be great though.
Kind of hoping Nutt turns in it.

 

[BatrickPatrick]

I think Night Watch is my favourite, and there's no real way for a sequel to that, soo...But any book with Vimes in it will at least be goodish.

[pip]

Now thats enthusiasm.

 

[Bouncy Castle]

Have to agree with Bouncy

(Thud - geddit?)
