Not read it yet but it looks interesting.
Fair amount of dross in Kindle 12 days sale but there was Good Omens for £1.29 and The Colour of Magic for £1. Never read a Pratchett... must be overdue.
I have not been able to find any bargains on the kindle sale and no, I have never read a Pratchett either!!
I only read a Pratchett because my teenage son had the lot. Not read any since. Loved it but was on catch up on books then. 12 years later. Only read that one Pratchett. Never caught up.
Yes, I must admit I always thought of them as teenage boy territory when I was younger. Not sure why as I lived Hitchhikers Guide and so on.
The first Discworld is not great - please don't judge them all by that and make sure to try some others! :)
Do they have to be read in order or can you pick up any and know what is going on? I tend to be quite anal about series and read them chronologically anyway but just wondering as there are a lot!
Sounds good Pat. I know my local library does audio books but I haven't got into listening to books yet. If I had a long car commute or a dog to walk I can imagine they would be ideal.The actual book and Kindle versions don't seem to be divided into chapters which is a bit confusing. I've just finished the second section (p81). I don't know if that relates to your chapters or not.

Also just noticed:
The Lives of Others

I think they accessed my wish list and just hit hard on discounting my wished for books as I have had so many price drop emails in the last 24 hours!
