RIP.

Small Gods is one of my favorite fantasy books ever.

I wonder if he suicided. (When he was diagnosed, he became a promoter of legalizing assisted suicide)

either way RIP

RIP. The Discworld books are fantastic. Dementia is awful.

 

[Francis Rossi]

I never knew he was Rhianna's father.

Yep. I think she's in charge of Discworld now, although she did say she's unlikely to write anything herself. Don't know how I'd feel about Discworld books not written by Terry.

I thought you all were talking about Rihanna for a second. My mind was starting to melt there.
