Interesting news

Just got an email from Amazon telling me my copy of The Long Earth (Pratchett / Baxter) has shipped. Be interested in seeing what it's like - as I understand it, it's a Pratchett SF idea from the late 70s / early 80s which he shelved because he was making hugely more money from the Discworld books. I just hope that it works with the hand of Baxter upon it.

I should be interested to hear more about it when you have a chance to read it. I've seen mentions of it, but I'm not sure what to expect of it. . . .

Yes, same here. There was a generally positive review on Tor.com and I'm looking forward to it.

Terry told me about wanting to write this book in the late 80s, I'm just praying that it works after all those years.
