Balls!
I mean, it's hardly unexpected given his condition but sad never the less.
Death, Binky and the Grim Squeeker have borne him on to wherever he thinks lies beyond.
I hope his daughter does a good job of carryon the books but they just won't be quite the same.

A friend, shortly before he died, as good as forced me to read the first two Discworld books as I wasn't interested. I'm glad he did.

The way his death was announced on Twitter was just perfect for such a man.

HELLO.
You?
YES.
Ah, I've been expecting you.
YES?
Well, of course, I created you!
NO YOU DIDN'T, I'VE ALWAYS EXISTED.
Whatever, let's get on with it shall we.
YES.
Do you have any questions...
I didn't mean that you should swing that thing, I thought you were going to ask me some questions.
NO. COME ON NOW, WE STILL HAVE A LOT TO DO TONIGHT.
Oh, brother! What have I created.
RIP!
