When Raising Steam was released in 2013, I had a lot going on in my life and as a result, I never got around to reading it.
When STP passed a couple of years later, I had still not made time to read what turned out to be his last full discworld novel (not including the postumously release of Shepherd's Crown, also not read).
Now I do not want to read them, because once I do, it's over, no more Pratchett to read.
As it stands, I still have one more Disc book and one spin off to read, very much a fat lady singing scenario.
What are your thoughts on this?
I slept on Raising Steam and Moving Pictures. The plots seemed a little silly, even for Pratchett, and I went years and years and read basically every other book before finally giving in and reading them and I kick myself for waiting so long. They are both brilliant and clever, and as a movie buff, Moving Pictures was a particular joy to read because there were HUNDREDS of references to catch. Raising Steam is cute and interesting and there are parts that live rent free in my head now.
I suggest you read it.
