A New Terry Pratchett Book this October!


I don't know about you guys, but I love Terry Pratchett. He's one of the few readers who actually made me lol. And yes, I said lol, not laugh-out-loud. But it's ok, cause it's the internet. Right? Right?

Anyway, his new book is called Snuff! and is centered around His Grace, His Excellency, The Duke of Ankh; Blackboard Monitor, Commander Sir Samuel Vimes. To give him his full title.

The blurb from the book reads:

"According to the writer of the best-selling crime novel ever to have been published in the city of Ankh-Morpork, it is a truth universally acknowledged that a policeman taking a holiday would barely have had time to open his suitcase before he finds his first corpse. And Commander Sam Vimes of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch is on holiday in the pleasant and innocent countryside, but not for him a mere body in the wardrobe, but many, many bodies and an ancient crime more terrible than murder. He is out of his jurisdiction, out of his depth, out of bacon sandwiches, occasionally snookered and occasionally out of his mind, but not out of guile. Where there is a crime there must be a finding, there must be a chase and there must be a punishment. They say that in the end all sins are forgiven. But not quite all..."

I'm looking forward to this. It'll be published on the 13th of October, and is the 39th Discworld novel.
