Was sad to hear Terry Pratchett died at 66 after being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's. A message from his Authors.

His last tweet was simply "The End"

RIP

He was one of my favorite authors, and I have several of his books that I have read several dozen times. It's like visiting old friends. :sign-sad:

Yes very sad. I read a lot of his books. The Colour of Magic was the first one. RIP.

I own pretty much all the discworld books, very saddened to hear of Terry's passing.

I highly recommend everyone to read the book: Good Omens (Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch )

Sounds like a plan.
