Because I'm sometimes overfocused

[msagara]

... and I'd finished GOING POSTAL, Pratchett's latest novel, and I had reread all of the Watch novels in chronological order and was left with that slightly empty feeling one gets when one hasn't quite finished but there's nothing left to finish, I suddenly remembered that Google Is Our Friend, and, in an act much less lazy than is my wont, dug up a few words from alt.fan.pratchett, posted by the author in question.


"All this being said, at the recent DWcon I did a reading on the Friday
night and gave the audience a choice between part of the next adult
novel ( a Watch novel) and the next Tiffany/Feegle novel. They both got
loud cheers, but the latter's cheer was perceptibly louder. Maybe
there are two roads now."

I'm so excited :D. New Watch novel!

ETA: The new working titles, according to the site that tenebris so kindly pointed out are:

WINTERSMITH (Tiffany novel)
THUD (Watch novel)

Many moods of Pratchett reading

Sorry to butt in here...

I found that I held onto Night Watch for over a year, being unable to bring myself to read it because of what was going on in my own life. One deployed loved one later, I devoured it and enjoyed it immensely.

I love all of the Discworld sub-sets almost equally, but my personal #1 favorite has to be Reaper Man. It's so neat to see the development of the embodiment of a physical process into a fully fleshed character. And of course, the introduction of the Death of Rats ;-)
