... like the image of the gods playing dice, and being bad losers :P
And I've always been wondering what aussies thinks of The last continent... because I think it's hilarious! 69. Beyond the Western Sea by Avi
70. Magical Melons by Carol Ryrie Brink
71. The Last Continent by Terry Pratchett 44. the Last Continent ... they didn't expand on Carrot very much. They kind of-sort of hint at hidden depths, but then don't deliver. I'm reading The Last Continent and Wintersmith now, and enjoying both. 35. Vampyrrhic by Simon Clark (Cemetary Dance Book Club)
Rating 5/5
36. The Last Continent by Terry Pratchett (audio)
Rating 5/5
37. Tintenfass. Sonderausgabe zur Langen Nacht der kurzen Geschichten 2007
Rating 3/5
38. The War of the Worlds by H. G. Wells (audio ... I really liked Monstrous Regiment, but my fav is probably Soul Music, probably because it was my first but I like Last Continent and Hogfather too.
My least fav is Jingo, I had to start reading it 3 times before I got through it, and I've never revisited it (i've read most of the ... ... and Ladies

Night Watch ... ... so proud of me. I had my little biking light strapped to my forehead so that I could read bits of The Phoenix Guards and The Last Continent when it became too dark to read otherwise.
Anyway, as you can tell what with my posting and all, my power is now back. Anyone else have a similar ... ... on earth--Roberto Bolano
re-read Chapel Road--Louis Paul Boon
November
The bad girl--Mario Vargas Llosa
The last novel--David Markson
The counterlife--Philip Roth
December
Tree of Smoke--Denis Johnson ... (including Tiffany) and Vimes definitely comes in third. Being Australian there is also a special place in my heart for The Last Continent (especially after discovering that meat pie floaters are real!) ... whoever they are (how DID you do that?), had the right idea. Find out what they are interested in. If they love Australia, The Last Continent is fun, but I do think that Guards!, Guards! is terrific and would have a wider appeal. #30 Very scary allergy that, nuts are in so many things.
Has anyone read the Pratchett book The Last Continent wherein the creation of Vegemite is described? Or is it the creation of Marmite? I think beer was used. ... Books signed by Terry Pratchett, The Colour of Magic, Good Omens (a collaboration with Neil Gaiman), Mort, and The Last Continent. ... include Reaper Man, Men at Arms : a novel of Discworld (man it's hard to get those touchstones straight), Jingo, and The Last Continent.
Nice to meet you all! ... books too. My husband has read a couple, I think his favorite so far is Good Omens. My other favorite books so far: The Last Continent, Lords and Ladies, Carpe Jugulum, Guards! Guards!
Other than that, I am a lazy typist, so visit my profile. :) I love to read about cowboys, ... ... my other least favourite contenders are
Colour of magic (discworld novel), light fantastic, interesting times, and the last continent. Although none get less than 3 stars too.
I know many people who do really like Small gods, but I just don't find it that funny. Some conversations ... Ooop, I put this on the wrong thread before. I finished Terry Pratchett's The Last Continent. Loved it. Laughed more than any other of his that I've read yet.
How nice, the touchstones weren't working on the other thread, but they loaded right up here. Picked up The Last Continent this morning while I was cleaning the coffeepot with vinegar. Fun way to wait for the timer to go off. ... I beat my numbers from last year in spite of falling asleep every 20 min. Hoping to get to another Pratchett book soon, The Last Continent, if I can find it. #12 - As an Australian, I'm sure when I finally get around to reading last continent I will love it :) 'Mate' is a pretty common word, especially in the small country town I live in, even though the word usually annoys me and I only use it when i'm being sarcastic.
I have always loved Gandalf. ... #11 - Neither am I, and maybe that's why I like the Discworld ones ;-)
SPOILER WARNING
In Last Continent Rincewind is stranded in the strange country of XXX where everyone says "mate" to each other.. etc. I don't know what people from Australia thinks of it, but I think it's funny! ... series, and I have to admit that one of the reasons for that is the wizards. All of them.
OK, maybe not Rincewind (but The Last Continent is a good one, as are a few of the others that feature him). I think the Archchancellor Ridcully is a favourite for being both daft and clever, but I ... ... Times (Rincewind)
