julesG Which was your favourite story? 9mo

willaful I'm not sure; maybe the Scrooge sequel. I've seen turnarounds of the story before but never that all-too-likely version. 😂 And Father Christmas' new job was sweet. Pretty much all of them have made me chuckle. 9mo

julesG @willaful The Scrooge sequel was great. My favourite story was the time travel story, The Fossil Beach. But it was also fun too see Pratchett's early writing that turned into parts of Discworld. Honestly made me want to start a re-read of the Discworld novels again. 9mo

willaful @julesG That one was cute. And the one with the stage sets was wild, though I wish it had a stronger ending. 9mo

BookmarkTavern I really loved the Pilgarlic Towers one with all the ghosts. It just tickled me. But I also loved the Fossil Beach one. His time travel stories are always some of my favorites. 9mo

Soubhiville @julesG I liked the fossil story too! I think my favorite was the gnome garden one. I loved that they took care of the gnome problem just to invite mermaids! @BookmarkTavern I liked the ghost story too! 9mo

Soubhiville I‘m really glad these were gathered and I got to read them, but I also wonder if that‘s what Terry would have wanted after reading his bio by Rob… it sounds like it may have been clear that he was happy these early stories had disappeared, and he didn‘t want anything additional printed after he was gone (though maybe that only applied to his unfinished stories.) 🤷‍♀️ 9mo

Soubhiville Of course I contributed by purchasing and reading the book. How could I not? 9mo

willaful @Soubhiville I had exactly the same thought! It felt like in the intros, both writers had qualms they did their best to squash, but I had some discomfort mixed with my enjoyment. 9mo
