It’s a shame, but probably for the best.

However, that article is written horribly.

From a PM a wrote where this was mentioned:


I heard he went early to avoid the rush :wink: .

I will certainly miss his work though - there are plans to let others write Discworld books (can’t remember who though), but it won’t be the same. Loved in particular Lord Vetinari, Vimes (and Carrot & Angua), Susan Sto Helit & Death, plus the two main witches (Granny Weatherwax & Nanny Ogg). And of course the Librarian :slight_smile: .
