h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well if I'm reviewing it, 'twould you accept a reviewof abook I'm 2/3rds of the way through?

I'm past the important bits... ie plot whatever.

I suppose I'd prefer you to have read it all the way through, really. Still, noone else shows any signs of wanting to review it , so you may be able to finish it at a leisurely pace and still review it .

I'm the wrapping up section.... past what the inside cover tells you what the book's about.

Ah, well if you were going to be very sneaky, you could just copy out that... but you might get ratted.

Nah...




No longer with frying pan in hand or indeed the Chalk under her feet, witch-to-be Tiffany Aching has been sent off (by Miss Tick) to the home of Miss Level - a witch whose quite comfortable to be in two places at once.

However, something sweeps the hills looking for the right mind and Tiffany's 'see me' is letting it see her. Only the Nac Mac Feegle pictsies have the drink to fight something that's invisible and can't be killed.

Then again, if they're pished, seeing it isn't a concern anyway.


For me this second Tiffany Aching story took a while to become Discworld. Oh the characters and names were there but a few pages needed to be bypassed before you can place your finger and say "that's Discworld right there".
The pacing was strange with reems of dialogue between the Feegles are taxing if y' ken w' a mean.
Once it gets into the authentic Discworld then it's the usual weirdness we've come to expect with a strange case of a city making a cameo.

Beautiful, except I for a few spelling, grammar-y things, correct me if I'm wrong.

finger and


should be 'finger down and'


But every thing else is as it should be...

Actually, looking back at it, that is one of my favourite reviews ever .

... Why?

Ah, 'reems' has an 'a' in it I believe, and you need the other sort of 'whose'.

It tells you what to expect without actually telling you what happens, offers constructive criticism and also I just like the way you talk about the way the Nac Mac Feegle talk. I just like it.

And 'are taxing' being 'being taxing' but we move on!

I reckon it makes sense either way, but whatever you're happier with

Anyway, it's up there now.

I'm toying with an idea for the reviews page: putting all the separate categories on different pages, to try to reduce loading time. What do you think?

I don't have a loading time problem...

It's A Hat not just Hat

Are you on broadband?

It would also make for ease of scrollability.

Aha, thanks very much.
