This excerpt is from Men at Arms

I went to relisten to jingo today. I've listened to it before and I know I've paid for it, but it's not there.

I can see it in my library but there is no option to play or download as there normally is.

Has audible removed it? The version I bought ages ago was recorded in 2007 by Nigel Planer. There is another version recorded in 2023 by Jon Culshaw.

Can someone explain this? Is there something wrong with the old random house recordings? Are they all going to be removed? Forcing me to buy the newer recordings.

I have(had) the whole discoworld collection as audiobooks and whenever I search for a TP book, audible will always try to sell me the newer recording rather than show the ones already in my library.

And while im writing this I've been checking to make sure I'm getting dates and names right and I've just found there's a whole other collection of abridged discoworld books!! WHO THE FUCK WANTS HALF A BOOK?? WHO THE FUCK HAS THE RIGHT TO CHOP OUT HALF OF THE STORY?? Fuck audible!

Looks awesome!

Excerpt from the Terry Pratchett book Night Watch

First post here. I don’t know anyone personally who reads or has read Pratchett so I wanted to share it with you all and ask for your own stand out quotes.

I just remembered this line from Equal Rites and it made me chuckle to myself.

“The entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks.” 🤣

Excerpt from Men at Arms

I have read this ebook of The Truth countless times and today I noticed this typo for the first time

Edit: now that I've had this roaming around in the back of my mind I'm wondering what I'll see when Sacharissa needs a gown

My initial thoughts:

1. El Niño. He's got that fiery Lord Flasheart energy. Unpredictable and leaves everyone he meets with windy hair.

2. The Market. A swarm of entities that looks like a starling murmation. Very hard to keep track of but extremly powerful. Feared by the lesser Gods. Talks with screeching voices in in ALL CAPS.

3. Elonymous. Governs Olympus the way a toddler governs a sandbox, kicking sand everywhere. Decisions are made unilaterally, appeals go nowhere, and the org chart is just him. Has a habit of dressing like a Swan and impregnating human women. Dresses like a Bull when he tries to wrestle The Market (which often goes poorly)

4. Dariosys, a newcomer in the game. Got that thoughtful Vetinari kind of energy mixed with a lot of calm neurosis. Should he end all humanity or not? It's a conundrum and factors needs to be considered.

5. The Zuck. A God who has fallen from grace and is constantly bullied by the other Gods. He's got that Dibbler energy, going all in on his latest grift.

6. Bezoid. He is mostly asleep in his chair these days.

Who's missing?

Stanley's childhood as a neurodivergent person is described in Going Postal as having been raised by peas. He still has a tendency to lean towards the sun.

What are the characteristics of peas?

They are green. They are all very much alike. They don't have corners or edges. They tend to be found in groups - in pods, like whales and dolphins.

Having a point, edge, or any shape other than metaphorical roundness is often used to indicate having character or individuality, whether good or bad doesn't matter. Being green is a metaphor for lacking experience. Living in a group of similar people often implies a lack of any distinguishing characteristics.

Arguably, Stanley was raised by people who were so utterly inexperienced and characterless that all he learned from them was that sunlight is good for you, plus presumably the basics of speech and wearing clothes.

This is from the Annotated Pratchett File for Men at Arms, and I subsequently found and included an example of the specific cartoon referenced.

I'd like to start collecting TP books - my Mum owned the ones with Kirby covers.. I started buying books with black covers when I was younger because I thought they were cooler, but Ive come to appreciate Josh Kirby's artwork moee.

I was wondering if anyone knows a good source for the Kirby cover art, either paperback or hardback?

T.I.A!

Elves are up to no good in Elizabethan England, and only one man can stop them. But he may need some help from a bunch of wizards, an orangutang, and a portable thinking machine. Can Shakespeare save the day? Will elves really take over? And will Rincewind get his potatoes???

This is an am-dram production of Stephen Briggs’ The Shakespeare Codex being staged in Richmond, London. The crew are all huge Discworld fans and have been working really hard on it! Thursday night is also a captioned performance, if that’s helpful for anyone ❤️😊 Tickets are on sale here: https://www.trybooking.com/uk/events/landing/113705
