    Is it outside the remit of this forum to talk about Nation?

    I thought Nation was brilliant - not funny, and if it wasn't written by TP it probably wouldn't have been published. But there is something brilliant about it, especially the little commentary at the end. I get the impression that he was saying "re-read my books and have a think about them". It reminds me of the increasing trend in latter discworld books in that he moves away from making a load of jokes, and tries to flesh out his world (and of course parody ours along the way).

    Anyone else have any views on it?

    No talking about non-Discworld topics.

    This Forum is busy enough as it is.
