  17. saw this on Reddit The sun goes down upon the Ankh, And slowly, softly fades - Across the Drum; the Royal Bank; The River-Gate; the Shades. A stony circle's closed to elves; And here, where lines are blurred, Between the stacks of books on shelves, A quiet 'Ook' is heard. A copper steps the city-street On paths he's often passed; The final march; the final beat; The time to rest at last. He gives his badge a final shine, And sadly shakes his head - While Granny lies beneath a sign That says: 'I aten't dead.' The Luggage shifts in sleep and dreams; It's now. The time's at hand. For where it's always night, it seems, A timer clears of sand. And so it is that Death arrives, When all the time has gone... But dreams endure, and hope survives, And Discworld carries on.

  21. Here you go Doc and The Colour of Magic is the one to start with. For more info see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discworld This article is about the novels. For the Discworld itself, see Discworld (world). For the MUD, see Discworld MUD. For the magazine on the Apple Macintosh, seeDiskworld. Discworld Cover of an early edition of The Colour of Magic; art by Josh Kirby Author Terry Pratchett Country United Kingdom Language English Genre Comic fantasy Discworld is a comic fantasy book series written by the late English writer Sir Terry Pratchett, set on the fictionalDiscworld, a flat disc balanced on the backs of four elephants which, in turn, stand on the back of a giant turtle, Great A'Tuin. The books frequently parody, or take inspiration from J. R. R. Tolkien, Robert E. Howard, H. P. Lovecraft andWilliam Shakespeare, as well as mythology, folklore and fairy tales, often using them for satirical parallels with current cultural, political and scientific issues. The series is popular, with more than 80 million books sold in 37 languages.[1][2] Including the first novel, The Colour of Magic (1983), forty Discworld novels have been published, with the forty-first scheduled for late 2015, although with Pratchett's passing on 12th March 2015, this will mark the end of the series. Pratchett, who suffered from Alzheimer's disease, said that he would be happy for his daughter Rhianna to continue the series when he is no longer able to do so.[3] The original British editions of the first 26 novels, up to Thief of Time(2001), had distinctive cover art by Josh Kirby; the American editions, published by Harper Collins, used their own cover art. Since Kirby's death in October 2001, the covers have been designed by Paul Kidby. Companion publications include eleven short stories (some only loosely related to the Discworld), four popular science books, and a number of supplementary books and reference guides. In addition, the series has been adapted for graphic novels, for the theatre, as computer and board games, as music inspired by the series, and repeatedly for television. Newly released Discworld books regularly top The Sunday Times best-sellers list, making Pratchett the UK's best-selling author in the 1990s, although he has since been overtaken by Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. Discworld novels have also won awards such as the Prometheus Award and the Carnegie Medal. In the BBC's Big Read, four Discworld novels were in the top 100, and a total of fourteen in the top 200.
