pickIt took me a while to get into this one (about 75% through), but suddenly it just worked for me. I can‘t really explain it. Then it just abruptly ended with this inexplicable emerge and phone call. I cannot wait until we read the second book, now. This is much different than discworld or anything else I‘ve ever read of Pratchett‘s. Clearly that is the influence of Baxter.

julesG What?! I have to get 3/4 through for it to become interesting? Erm, sorry, Sir Terry, I can't. 2y
GingerAntics @julesG maybe you‘ll enjoy it more. Maybe it will make more sense to you. I didn‘t get the point until then, and nothing that needs explaining gets explained, so you‘re trying to figure everything out. Oy, you‘d think Terry would have made this more tolerable. Dunno. 2y

GingerAntics @julesG Baxter is not an author I‘m going to be seeking out on his own. 2y
julesG You're not exactly selling it to me. 2y
julesG I'm giving it a few more chapters... Maybe it'll click 2y
GingerAntics @julesG fingers crossed. How far in are you? 2y
julesG Three or four chapters. Put it away about 3 weeks ago, but haven't thrown it off the kindle yet. 2y
GingerAntics @julesG at least it‘s still on the kindle. 🤷🏼♀️ So you get my issue then. That makes me feel better. I worried it would just be me. 2y
