So it looks like the next Discworld game will be based on the Clacks system that featured prominently in his later Ankh-Morpork books. I was generally more of a fan of Terry Pratchett's 'middle period' when he still made funny jokes but had mastered the rudiments of plot and characterisation. Nevertheless this piques my interest more effectively than the child-friendly Witches game that followed the original (and under-appreciated) territory control game.
Speaking of authors who I like - if you haven't read Neil Gaiman's 'Trigger Warning' you should do immediately. Along with American Gods and Sandman, I thought that his two earlier collections of short stories were among his best work, The new collection continues this trend with a marvellous and versatile mix of gothic horror, whimsy and sentimental tales.
