A Blink of the Screen: Collected Short Fiction by Terry Pratchett
5.0
When I saw this book in the bookstore I just had to get it so I ordered it online when I got home. And wow, I loved it.
Ok not everything, but most of the short stories were absolutely wonderful and I enjoyed them. Some I skipped though, mostly because they just didn't interest me that much.
I can say I loved, loved, loved the Discworld short stories. Finally we get all those older characters again, The witches, Death, the UU and more. All characters that I miss so much, characters for which I keep hoping they will get a new book. For some reason the new Discworld just doesn't have that spark any more, maybe because I don't really like the new characters that much. Bring back Death! The Witches! And others. :)
So yeah, I really enjoyed the witches long story, it was really fun to see Ogg and Weatherwax together again.
In short, this book is really something if you are a big fan of Terry Pratchett, and I would recommend it to those who are. :)
