I love the Discworld books!
My favourite character is Angua, followed by William De Worde, Death and Nobby Nobbs.

LOVE Pratchett! I can never pick a favourite character, but I do like Vimes and Death, and the time monks, and the Patrician, and well lots of others. Oh yes Tiffiny Aching and all the witches are fabulous. I thought Nation was wonderful and surprised myself by loving the football one too. His writing has always been brilliant - I used to be really ill with ME and couldn't get dressed or cook, or anything quite a lot of the time, yet Pratchett's books were still accessible to me as they were so well written. I am in awe at how much his writing just keeps on improving.

I haven't read any Discworld novels yet, but I have seen the film adaptation of Hogfather. I really enjoyed that. I loved Susan, Death and Mr. Teatime.
