- Terry Pratchett
Unseen Academicals and Going Postal are sitting on my bookshelf. Will never give them away. Others are on my Kindle. I only started reading Terry Pratchett novels in my 50s. They are such a critical examination of society, government and power structures…and absolutely hilarious. This recommendation has reminded me to keep collecting and reading.
