Yay! Genuinely uplifting news, thank you.

He literally didn’t want any of his unpublished works to be published.

That’s why the data for all his unfinished novels were destroyed by steamroller.

I bet there will be some 'problematic' content. So I am calling for them to be banned. Now.

I’ve heard you suck live.

These were published in a newspaper though, so I’m fine with it personally.

Pat Harkin was a pretty close friend of Terry's - not your ordinary fan. He's a good guy and he won't have done this if he thought Terry would have had a problem with it.

Got bored and decided to troll a positive sub reddit?

Fat Mike is the name of the lead singer for punk rock group NOFX. Their live albums are all titled some variant of I Heard They Suck Live. It was a simple joke and I assumed you were a NOFX fan. Sorry if that’s not the case, it wasn’t an attempt to offend.

I'm aware but it's actually a reference to something else. I was not aware of the name of their live albums. No worries bud!

Terry was one of kind. If I could knight any man in history I would double knight him.

"In 2017, a hard drive containing up to 10 incomplete novels was crushed by a steamroller, in accordance with the novelist's wishes."

Unfinished. Not unpublished.

I know this is what he wanted but damn this still makes me so sad.

Psst, I got your joke and was uplifted until The Decline

NOFX is awesome! Nice reference.

It’s time to touch grass.

Keep picking those fights and issues that only exist inside delusional conservative’s heads.

I hope you are right. I would both love more Terry Pratchett but also not want it other than on his terms

Edit: I've now read the article. Published =/= unpublished!!

I think Terry was pretty clear when he pre-ordered that steamroller.

The last Discworld novel sits on my shelves with all the others, but still unread.

Because I decided I just do not want to live in a world where there's no new Pratchett books for me to read. And I love to think Sir Pratchett might perhaps have appreciated the sillyness of that.

But I'm very happy I can buy and read this.

But it’s really good, assuming you’re referring to “Snuff.”

if you have a hypoxic brain injury like me you can forget a great deal of the plot of his books and then read them again. Life after being dead has been weird.
