Wow... that is just such a very Pratchett way to go. I'm really glad he got that. I thought I heard someone talking about it last night at work, but I wasn't sure and I just couldn't compute so I made myself believe I misheard. But wow... that is such a big big chunk of this world falling away and an inconceivable amount of worlds in those other trouserlegs too. Ever since his alzheimer's diagnosis, I've been rationing his books for myself because I knew that one day, there would be no more, but man, this is way too early to be that day. His ability to write on so many different levels of thought at the same time has always greatly impressed me and DEATH is unequivocally my single most favorite literary character in existence. I'll try and keep him in my First Sight and Second Thoughts... but as we all know, as long as we keep reading his works and bringing his worlds alive with our imagination, he ain'tn't dead.
