I've just finished reading "Raising Steam." I'm not sure what I think yet.

I think it needs 2 readings. I loved the every railway cliche imaginable sections and the progress of the goblins, but the grags seemed a little obvious.
Pterry's books are much darker and political these days.

I like them.

"Raising Steam" I think PTerry has slightly changed the nature/character of the Patrician, and I feel a little less respect for him. (Havelock Vetinari, that is, notPTerry.)

I've expanded answer 13 a little.

He's not known for writing books, but he's published one that I know of. I wouldn't expect to find it in the local public library though.

An erotic type? Helvetica can be a little bold, and has been know to titillate by appearing sans serif, but give me a ribald Comic Sans and I'll go akerning in the kitchen with... Nurse! I'm feeling a little font...

Erotic: No
Kitchen related: No
Melodrama: No
