Dave I am SO jealous of you having lots of Discworld books left to read On the other hand... you don't at the moment have that tingly excited anticipation of knowing a new Discworld book is due out TOMORROW and you ring your friends and talk about it, your skin itching cause you have been DiscworldLESS for what seems like an eternity... Oh dear.... is there a 12 step program for us?

I do have them all on a bookshelf ready to read, apart from Midnight, (it looks pretty ) I am sure that by the time Snuff comes out I will have the tingly feeling.

Okay I am in two minds now Dave. jealous of you having all the books to read but I think MORE jealous of all the "pretty" books lined up on your shelf. Rub it in!

I might take a picture and post it. Only problem is that my brother has my Colour of Magic as I've been trying to get him to read it for months now. :x

Complete aside frome the cookbook, Where's My Cow, Folklore, and Footnotes! and the encyclodias and pratchett portfolio!

 

[deldaisy]

Yeah I thought the jigsaw was showing off too.

 

[pip]

excellent.

Oddly still haven't got wheres my cow, folklore and footnotes either. Some day i'll get brave enough to buy a copy of footnotes even though i've read most of it anyway.

Not really willing to spend £300 or more on that.

Can't afford to really

Wish I'd bought more copies of Once More With Footnotes, I just ordered a copy when it came out and I think it cost about $30 including postage never thought it was going to be difficult to get.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing

 

[DaveC]

Hindsight would be awesome. You could see where you've been at the same time as you're going somewhere else.

My new neighbour gave me a hardback edition of the graphic novel of Colour of Money/Light Fantastic last night.

Bless him!!

Cool beans!

To be honest, I'm not a fan of graphic novels, though I've only ever read 1 - Buffy ( ), it seemed all over the place, but perhaps this will be different.

The Buffy Season 8s - I read them only 2 issues to go till the end and a year till Season 9

 

[Bouncy Castle]

I read 2 or 3 of the magazines, and found the narrative to be all over the place - instead of boxes going l/r across the page, it seemed to be dotted all over.

OK well the new seeason 8 started a few years ago and is nearing the end its over 40 issue run in a couple of months. Its starts off set about a year and a half after the end of season 7.

There are also the some new Anggel comics that came out just after and are still going, that show what happenned when Wolfram and Hart brought Hell to LA.

Well worth reading - each arc are collected in graphic novels.
