THUD

I've just finished reading THUD by Terry Pratchett. I read most Pratchett novels twice: the first time on an airplane, and then again a few months later on the ground. I think the duality of surface- and deep- entertainment is one of Pratchett's better qualities. When on a plane it's easy and fun reading (which is good, because his books are almost always in airport bookstores). When in a more appropriate setting, you can absorb more of the text and appreciate a whole new layer to his stories.

How do I get Terry Pratchett to endorse my book, Cluck, is what I want to know. That would also be nice on two levels: first it would make me feel good because I'm a huge fan; second it would sell a lot of books. There's very little chance that you're reading this, Mr. Pratchett, but if you are: I am officially begging. I'll wash your car, whatever. I am groveling.

Also, I'm trying to be better about posting reviews over at amazon so stop by and vote for my review!
