Terry Pratchett recorded books
So here's the thing, I can't review books. I know what I like, but I stink at telling folks about it in any coherent manner. (Unlike the Queen at watat.com who is a marvelous reviewer). I do however heartily recommend anything by Terry Pratchett, especially the unabridged recordings. So, anyway, it all started a year ago when my daughter requested that if we had to listen to a recorded book in the car could it be Terry Pratchett? I agreed, but to my dismay found that MCLS has precious few of Mr. Pratchett's books on tape or CD. Well, we listened to Reaper Man, a wonderfully funny story about Death (you know, the guy with the black cloak and scythe). And of course we were all hooked (even the Dad and little brother). So now, having finished A Hat Full of Sky, and therefore all the sound recordings of Terry Pratchett in MCLS, what is left for me to do? I have tried with limited success to actually read the books, but I find that if I can't hear them in Stephen Briggs voice I don't totally get it. Time to stuff the suggestion box at WPL...and maybe even do a personal intervention.
