Is it just me or are the Discworld books realy good. I have started to read The Colour Of Magic and can't put it down. Is there anyone else like this.

You really should watch The Shawshank Redemption on video, but I have no idea which is best to start off with.
That film is really an excellent 3 hours of utter brilliance.

Only you can........... is not a disc world book.

His books are very good, very funny and very hard to put down. My favourites are Reaper Man, The Fifth Elephant, Guards! Guards and Mort.

I got The Last Hero for Christmas, too, and am looking forward to reading after I've finished The Hobbit, The Shawshank Redemption and Children Of Hope ...

I got color of magic for xmas, and started it in the bath last night.

yeah, it's cool....

I read "Only you can save Mankind" but I couldn't get into the next two books.

Yeah, I've read Only You Can Save Mankind and Johnny and the Dead, they were both excellant books as well.

His books for kids are dead good as well.

A simple missing persons case built up to crazed cult summoning an cataclismic entity from the Dungeon Universe that won't stop until it destroys anything and everything on the turtle.

Discworld Noir is really quite interesting, it has many plot twists and unexpected events that you wouldn't have even know were coming.

I played demos of the games but i thought they were rubbish compared to the books
