    You might as well have saved yourself the effort and just bought Wintersmith and Hatfull of Sky while you were at the bookstore...you'll be wanting them as soon as you finish WFM.

    Thanks for the advice, I had to see if my son had them on his bookshelf first, which he doesn't.

    Got the DVD at home but have not watched my self and it is Hogfather. If your going to read about the Nac Mac Feegle Read "Hat full ot Sky" (I think thats it) it's where they first appear.

    My Wife if the Pratchett Fan She's got all of the books and the Yearbooks and the calendars, etc. etc. etc. If I ever find a Model of Atun I'm getteing it for her.

    Edit: Darn i should read the whole thread before posting. we also have the Wyrd Sisters Animated DVD

    Sorry to drag out an old thread, but finished The Wee Free Men- great read, now have Hatful of Sky, and am on my way to pick up Wintersmith. I did read a few other books in between- like Twilight (just to see what the hoopla was about.)

    Twilight by Stephenie Meyer? Finished it about 30 minutes ago. Not too bad.

    And just a quick update:

    The Colour of Magic will finally air in the USA on ION TV over the Thanksgiving holiday...mark your calendars.

    http://www.marketwatch.com/news/stor...3%7D&dist=hppr

    In an inspired piece of casting, they have Jeremy Irons as Lord Havelock Vetinari....let's see how long it takes JI to sneak in his tag line, "...you have no idea." Astute watchers will note that he even managed to stick it in The Lion King, where he did the voice of the evil lion, Scar.
