2 journalers for this copy...
Picked up to fulfill a wish for my NSSEB '06 partner.
This was in my NSSEB parcel :-)
A huge thank you to Adrienne10, I'm a big Pratchett fan and I'm really looking forward to reading this.
Thank you so much for making my first NSSEB really special :-)

A story based on the ancient enmity between dwarves and trolls, encompassing Discworld history, a murder mystery and parental love. A good read but perhaps a little less ‘laugh out loud’ than some of Pratchett’s books and somewhat lacking in pace. When the action does hot up, for instance during the invasion of Vimes’s house, the story crackles along at an excellent rate. Old friends appeared again, Vimes, Sybil, Angua, Carrot and Detritus - and I did like the new character of Brick, the troll.
To fully appreciate Thud! I think you have to read it at the same time as ‘Where’s My Cow?’ as this adds new depths to the story :-)
Thanks again Adrienne10. I've really enjoyed reading this and it will be going in my permanent collection.

I'm having to declutter my bookshelves so some of my PC books must go.
'Thud!' will be left on the Diabetes UK table at my local Tesco.
