2/14/2009Inseparable in my mind from a Futurama Christmas episode. Which is not a bad thing at all.***6/21/2014Winter solstice holiday book at the summer solstice, why not? A wintry book can be just the thing on a day it is too hot to move, let alone go outside.Here is Death, trying to maintain fai...
I have this as part of the Gods trilogy myself but after seeing the mini-series I had to read it again. It was interesting to see what parts were left in and what parts were left out of the mini-series. Many of the characters were quite well done but some under and others overstated (Ridicully wasn...
This one is a delight to read, featuring one of my favourite characters from the series, Death, and his granddaughter Susan. Something terrible has happened to the Hogfather, that beloved denizen of Discworld, and someone has to fill on his traditional duties on Hogswatchnight, where goodies and pre...
At one point in this book, once character says of another's ingestion of dried frog pills, "I'm sure he wouldn't keep on eating them if they were addictive."That's how I feel about Pratchett's books.This, while an incredible book, is not my favorite of his by a long shot.

I just wish Susan listened to her Grandfather more often. He's fa...
This is, I think, the fourth year running that I've read Hogfather in the week before Christmas. So I simply can't even try to give it a real review. It isn't quite my favorite Discworld book (that would be Night Watch), but it's well on up there. It's certainly my favorite Death book, which is sayi...
The Hogfather is classic mid winter festival, Father Christmas type belief focus for a pig based economy. He rides a huge, rustic wooden sleigh pulled by 4 hogs. And he appears to be missing. Dead isn't quite the word, if he doesn't return, it will be as if he never existed. And it takes a very spec...
Probably my favorite Discworld book. There's just so many things to love. On the surface, the play on Christmas, Susan's involvement, Death as the "Hogfather", it's a lot of fun to read. Then under it all is one of the best explanations of the importance of belief and the "little (and big) lies" tha...
