Ha! Maybe the 'Goose has been hooked by the magic of Discworld? I'd recommend going back and reading Colour of Magic and Light Fantastic to give you a good grounding in the realities of the place. (It is real, isn't it? :huh: )
Just finished taking my "Red Rabbit" to bed with me (Tom Clancy) and the two before that were "The Time-Traveller's Wife" (Niffenegger) and "Dissolution" by C.J. Sansom (a great historical murder mystery)

Weird but when I was young I couldn't get enough of books I would read anything but now I am old(er) I can't be bothered with them.
The last books I read were Ray Mears Bushcraft, the Flexifoil Book of Powerkiting and all of Joe Simpson's books though after I saw Touching the Void on DVD he peeed me off so I don't like him anymore. :P
A much better read was Endurance I picked in NZ about Ernest Shackleton's expedition to the Antartic and Captain Scott by Ranulph Fiennes.
Though I do love obscure Japanese movies 
h34r: too and cheap DVDs.

) I used to read the Discworld books to him when he was about 8 years old and then he gradually got into reading them himself. I credit TP with inspiring him to read for pleasure.
