  • I read only two books of him like 10 years ago, and I can still recall perfect details from the story. Only know I think about it, wow... that simply means he's an incredible writer. And I know nothing about the man, just those two books.

  • Legend!

  • I don't think Liz II tapping his shoulders would bring him any more honor than we do him. All the important lessons I have learned about life and human nature, I have learnt from the Discworld novels. Mr Pratchett, I loved your work when I read the Colour of Magic and have continued to be a devoted fan. Knighthood or not, you will always be my favorite author.

  • @255ad (cont) looking back though I will admit that cat thing was pretty poor it's just that it sounded better then what I ended up putting anyway witch was basically “well your wrong then”

  • @255ad You can barely form a coherent sentence, yet you are accusing someone of not understanding what philosophy is? Then you go and use logical fallacy to legitimize your argument, quite rightly pointed out by lordxeras. You sir, are an idiot.

  • @Andy1982able Of course you are right.

  • @PuppyZwolle Don't like to correct you after so long but it's actually Sir Terry, not 'Sir Pratchett'. Knighthoods, like their female versions (damehoods), are always attached to the Christian name, not the surname. So, for example, Dame Helen Mirren is Dame Helen, not 'Dame Mirren'.

  • He is the true Man and he deserves it.

  • @lordxeras well what you think philosophy is, is wrong
