Ankh-Morpork has sewers - and rats, and Mad Arthur, and all kinds of interesting things.<br /><br />I'm not sure I could pick a single book as a favorite, but the Tiffany books are definitely near the top of the list. I keep hoping for just one more.<br /><br />I have Hogwatch on my Christmas reading list - I do love the DEATH & Susan books.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-73193430109074165452012-12-10T15:51:47.348-06:002012-12-10T15:51:47.348-06:00I still haven't read anything by Terry Pratche...I still haven't read anything by Terry Pratchet yet.

I wish I had read it instead so I could really enjoy it! This one sounds interesting and because you wish it had been placed in the Discworld series makes me think I need to revisit Discworld again and soon!Natalie~Coffee and a Book Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369504951819517390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-365719252397686072012-12-10T09:47:24.976-06:002012-12-10T09:47:24.976-06:00I still haven't read Pratchett, though I have ...I still haven't read Pratchett, though I have the first three of his Discworld series on my shelves and on my Kindle. It sounds like I would enjoy this book, based on the fact that I LOVE Dickens and have enjoyed more than a few of his stories. This year for Christmas, I am thinking of reading one of his lesser known Christmas tales. I liked this review, and can see myself liking this book. It sounds so charming and homey. I like the fact that the main character doesn't struggle between right and wrong, he is just and he is fair. Great review today, Aarti! I am going to make it my personal mission to read at least 3 Pratchett books in the upcoming year.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.com
