It showed me that fantasy fiction could be more fun than chomping through a tub of popcorn.
John Gorman, author of
Quest For the Hope Box
I had dozens of names of great sci-fi writers run through my head: from Jules Verne, Ray Bradbury and Ursula K. Le Guin to Adrian Tchaikovsky, Emily St. John Mandel and Margaret Atwood. Then I walked past my bookshelves with the collection of Discworld novels sitting on the third shelf from the top, and I smiled as I do every time I see these books. So I knew that the answer was always Terry Pratchett. His incisive humour and whimsical world-building conceals great social commentary expressed through that wonderful mix of fantasy and parody that never fails to brighten my day.
