Terry Pratchett is spelled with two 't' s
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Anyone who has ended up here and is looking for more work by Terry Pratchett should do a search for the name spelled with two 't's. You'll find a lot more.
Wings
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Wings is a wonderful, fanciful tale. It is also the third book in a series and is best read in order. Terry pratchet's work is always strong enough to stand alone, but I wouldn't want to miss a single book from any of his series.
Why only one Terry Prachet book?

If you have anything against a sense of humour - Don't read Terry Prachet. Everyone of my friends are as much in love with his work as I am. If you enjoyed Wings, try a Discworld book! There is none better than Terry Pratchet to help you escape reality for a short time (it's better than any drug!).
I like his work, especially the discworld stuff

Wings is a fabulous book, funny by itself, but even funier if read along with Truckers and Diggers books. It is a good children's book, and something my 11 year old brother enjoyed reading immensly. I'm not from the UK, but America, however I went to England this summer and was Prachetised by my friend Naomi, whose family we stayed with. I wish you had more of his work, since the only place I've seen it for sale was in Broxbourne.
