There as some books on my shelves that I reread every few years. Dragging out an old, dusty favorite is like visiting a favorite friend or relative. There is something comfortable, familiar, and relaxing about it. The books we find ourselves especially drawn to tell us something about who and what we are, and they [...] read more »

The Fifth Elephant by Terry Pratchett
Finished rereading this one today. It's got vampires and werewolves, but unlike many books with these types of things, this one is really good.

Hogfather by Terry Pratchett
I just finished rereading this (for about the 5th time). It was my first Discworld book many years ago, and it really is not the best to start with. If you aren't familiar with the Disc or Pratchett's style of writing, it can be confusing. On a secon...more

Feet of Clay by Terry Pratchett
I just finished rereading this. I'd forgotten how good it was. I highly recommend this one to anyone looking for a great fantasy whodunnit story with laughs and philosophical insights.
Disturbing Clockwork by D.L. Morrese
" There is a whimsy to the way Morrese writes that could be called light fantasy. His work is infused with humor and intelligence and general good fun for the reader. Morrese presents us with characters that we’ve come to know and enjoy each time we... "

“What you see depends on where you stand.”
D.L. Morrese

“The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.”
Terry Pratchett, Diggers

“Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.”
Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time

“Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.”
Terry Pratchett, Jingo

“It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die. That is true, it's called Life.”
Terry Pratchett, The Last Continent

“Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom.”
Terry Pratchett
