Books
We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

Good Omens by Pratchett and Gaiman is so much fun, while Small Gods by Pratchett is genius.
Iain Banks for Scifi never disappoints
A. A Attanasio's 'the last legends of the earth' redefines epic scale
Cosmic Banditos by A. C. Weisbecker combines the topics of Central American banditry, the diets of large dogs and subatomic physics. What is not to like!
Then when I am feeling a bit more like a grownup, Herman Hesse, Joseph Heller, Melville, Hemmingway, Dickens and a million other great authors are out there and I enjoy them, but...
...but I find that after a few 'grown up' books I go back and re-read a random discworld novel. Terry's books are like old friends I keep returning to whenever I want to feel good about humanity again.
Thanks Terry.
