dollypie avatar reviewed Raising Steam (Discworld, Bk 40) on
Don't get this book. I don't know who REALLY wrote it but it wasn't Terry Pratchett. It is a watered down, badly strung together version of the Discworld that we have loved for all these years. The usual suspects in this book are completely out of character for what we have come to expect from them and in addition, casts characters in evil and terrifying roles that too closely resemble evil, terrifying people in our own reality. I don't like what's been done here and I'll view any subsequent books in the series with extreme suspicion.
