I get an error when I click on the Annotated Pratchett Files link in footnote 2. (GuideML problem, I think...)
Good entry, though. I love Terry Pratchett's work and live for new Discworld releases.

The parser converted the link to <./>http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/%20http://www.lspace.org/books/apf/</.>, so the problem is probably a rogue space in the GuideML.

Correct code: Annotated Pratchett Files
The entry probably has <LINK H2G2=.... instead of
(Having made this particular error myself a few times... )

Current GuideML:
Such as on the Annotated Pratchett Files website.
Correct GuideML:
Such as on the Annotated Pratchett File's website.
(The author of the APF is very clear that it is a *file*. Singular.)

I love the APF, but try very hard to avoid reading its documentation on any book until I am very familiar with that book. It spoils the fun and the challenge of finding the references for myself.
