Addicted to Discworld

Oh I am so addicted to Discworld, it is not funny (that is my addiction is not funny - the books are very funny). One of my coleagues who lectures English told me about an interview on Radio National's The Book Show with Terry Pratchett.

Reading the transcript, one sentence made me leap from my seat and start drooling with anticipation for his next book: Unseen Academicals. Which is about football in Discworld, and Terry is talking about the plot and subplots and says: "if I referred to two supports' clubs, alike in villainy."

Ah the prose, the tempo...
