The Ultimate Guide To Terry Pratchett's Written Works:

I have Snuff on order, it is getting hard to wait, but i just finished the Last Hero, and that helped a lot.

I have it on order too. Can't wait.

A bit apprehensive though. I don't think his last few books have been as good as they used to be tbh.

All I know is any Pratchett is better then just about any non-Pratchett, I liked the last ones just fine.

Ultimate Guide good, Library...

Hi. This guide is really good! Thanks!
I did notice that the "Library" section of this site is a little behind on listing the newest books.

Can't edit the top list anymore since the switch to the new platform. Says posts can be 10,000 characters max. The Guide is 20,000 inc. spaces and counting.

Any chance this limit can be increased?

Nice comprehensive list but as it was started 7 years ago unfortunately some of the external links don’t work anymore eg.

AM National Anthem – page no longer exists.
Sea and Little Fishes – content removed at request of Colin Smythe.

Also has the title ‘Raising Taxes’ been changed to the newly announced ‘Raising Steam’ or are they in fact two separate books?

Separate books. But PTerry has been putting Raising Taxes on backburner

Edit: Ya, many of those links may be expired. Sometimes they come online again so I can't be bothered checking them.

If you are looking for short stories online, just google the name. You never know where you might find a copy.

Cheers Mal, works fine now.

Out today:

The Science of the Discworld IV: Judgement Day

New article

58. Doctor Who was a safe option for Saturday teatime
(article in The Guardian, Nov 2nd, 2013)

It's been said that Raising Steam _is_ what was called Raising Taxes; he said he had trouble making taxes interesting.
