Well, letsee, 5th elephant was 24th novel. That means that Truth was 26th, and Thief of Time was 27. Then came Last Hero, at 28. Finally, there's Amazing Maurice, at 29. Then there'r three Truckers books, so that makes it 32. There's Good Omens, which makes it 33, and Carpet people, which makes it 34. Then There's Strata, 35, and finally, The Science of the Discworld, 36. That divides nicely into 4, nine each.
All review your favourite book (I'm doing Wyrd Sisters<sitch>. Whichever one of you reads this first start a conversation on my space (http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/U185550) and tell everyone about it. Then put all your reviews there, if anyone has any serious objections about them change it, and I'll put it into a guide entry. After that, well, I dunno. Would you prefer to do it by categories (Witches, Rincewind, City Watch, Independant Characters we Never See Again, etc...) or by just working through the list?
As for the review format, well i reckon there should be a rating at the end, a category(e.g. Rincewind, City Watch, etc) a short story spoiler, and who the review was by. Any suggestions for otherwise?

Careless people left Last Hero around so I know what i've got for Christmas ( no I didn't go snooping it was in a transparant-ish shopping bag that got whipped out of my view but not fast enough ) I'll be good and act all surprised though.
Reviews hmmmm not done a review since I was at school many moons ago but i'll have a go (even if the reviews are biased by the fact we all like Terry's books). 'Witches Abroad' is my favourite if no ones already got it in mind?

You don't need to do a review if you don't wanna. I don't think that anyone has Witches Abroad in mind. Also got last hero. Thought it was great:
These men are RUBIES insane. They're sure to RUBIES kill me. RUBIES. etc.... RUBIES. Has anyone ever noticed what a strange sounding word 'rubies' is?

The artwork in 'Last Hero' is fantastic, (shame about Josh Kirby, wasn't it).
I am now being forced to read 'Harry Potter' alright not forced exactly, I just want to know what all the fuss is about.
Going a bit tangital now. They're making another 'Harry Potter' book into a movie. I heard a wisper that 'Good Omens' is being made into a movie too, anyone know anything?
