My Recommendation


I would like to recommend you TERRY PRATCHETT! ! !

Terry Pratchett

He is a British writer commonly known as Terry Pratcherr. However, his full name with title sounds like Sir Terence David John Pratchett. He writes short fantasy stories and novels. He is mostly known for his Discworld series. I admire him mostly for his sense of humor, which is specific, very English and very witty, and for his productivity. He writes at average two books a year, which is quite outstanding, and additionally the books contain very interesting, twisted plot, many gags and all of them are very readable. You can read them without even noticing because they are so absorbing. Year ago he vas diagnosed with an Alzheimer's disease. Despite this fact he appealed to people “to keep things cheerful” and that he feels he has time for "at least a few more books yet". He is one of the ten people who I admire the most


Some quotes from Terry’s books:

“Always be wary of any helpful item that weighs less than its operating manual.”

“God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.”

“Gravity is a habit that is hard to shake off.”

“An education was a bit like a communicable sexual disease. It made you unsuitable for a lot of jobs and then you had the urge to pass it on.”! ! ! ! :):)

“Gods don't like people not doing much work. People who aren't busy all the time might start to think.”
