I think I'm swearing off Gladstone, but I don't have enough
information on El-Mohtar yet.
the thing about Pratchett is that at his best, he turns towards the
sincere at a critical moment. You always could tell he meant it more
because, well, it's not his usual mode. But he didn't always remember
to do that, and yeah, the books that are flip all the way through just
don't stick with me. The Hatful of Sky books are better about that
than most of Discworld.
