HogfatherAnyone else watch it? Well, not read the book but I think I will now. Loved the bit at the end :)
Out of all the Pratchett books I wish they'd turn into films, it'd be the five books where Rincewind (the useless wizard) is the main character. They are superb. -

Keith Campbell passes awayRead over on the Retro Gamer forums the very sad news that Keith Campbell passed away last year. He had a great adventure column in C & VG for many …
Keith also doubled up with Commodore User, where he had an excellent column. Did Keith contribute to SU at all? I've been reading him up on Mort scans.
Regardless, Keith was a scholar and a gentleman. Goodbye old friend. -

I've not read a Harry Potter book, so I can't really comment either way. However, I am certain that I have no great desire to read them.
