I came all the way from hating him, to kind of liking him, to being nostalgic about his books.
So, what do you guys think, postfactum? Post how many books you've read, what you currently think about Pratchett, and if you liked some of his books, which were your favourite?
I read about 10 books, liked about 5, and my favourites are Thud and Night Watch. Night Watch was overall quality literature, can't argue with that; while Thud had _the_ best and most fascinating, yet utterly believable and non-alien description of a fantasy culture in any fiction I ever read, but wasn't all that good of a book on itself. Hat Full of Sky had some decent moments, although all of Pratchett's witches are too realistically female for my tastes.
