Pratchett, Monstrous regiment
I don't know, but I think Pratchett is going downhill. He seems to be just going through the motions these days. At least, he doesn't seem to be reaching the same standard.
Well, ok, perhaps it's me, but I think he has reached the stage where there is a legion of loyal fans who will buy and read anything that he writes, and he doesn'y have any hope of reaching a wider readership, so he doesn't try.
Or, alternatively, he has transcended the genre and he is now writing works of great literary value. Perhaps it's my lack of taste.
