I picked up copy of the Colour of Magic at Birmingham Airport back in '83 to help the time pass on a flight to Crete and immediatly became hooked.The fact that all those wonderfull characters,Commander Vimes,Nanna Ogg,Rinceweed and DEATH to name but a few, will never entertain us with new adventures is an awful loss but you did leave us some great books to re-read.
R.I.P Sir Terry,you will never be forgotten by the millions of people who've had the pleasure of reading your books
Had he really declined in health very quickly recently, as it doesn't seem long ago since I saw him on TV? I wonder if Terry himself decided it was time to leave us, as he had always campaigned for this and even produced a documentary on dignity in dying - although newspaper reports said he died naturally.
My OH will miss his books - he has read them all - how will I replace his annual TP book at Christmas?
