Question. What the hell is the song at the end? It sounds like the intro of Men in Black. Bad movie, rockin' song. Is it just a coincidence, or are they the same?
And it looks great. I need to stop forgetting to pick it up when I go to the library.
You guys playing the game... open a new tab(or window depending on browser) with the hints page. It should a bit below the game screen. Sometimes it's best just to <i>wait</i>... Getting up before ford talks to Prosser is fatal.

I still read his books (haven't read the latest one...Postal something...).

Thief of Time was definetly a low blow (a little like Witches Abroad, if you ask me). I'd definetly suggest you take a look at a few more recent novels.
Men at Arms is pretty funny, IMHO. Really funny books, most of them. Some I didn't like, really, but there's plenty more. I'm wanting to read Going Postal, I hear it's incredible. I recently got done with Sourcery. Pretty good.

Nem: he just seemed lose the knack of storytelling later on. I can't remember Maurice that well, but Hat Full of Sky (and the other one with that girl in) just didn't know how to end. These latest ones haven't been his worst, I'll give you that; that one where the witches face some vampires was bad IMO (bad for Pratchett, okay for most other authors). Jingo was naff, too.
I think I should point out, that while you don't hear him in any trailer so far, Bill Bailey provides the voice of the whale. Which is possibly the finest piece of work performed by any casting department ever.
as in the whale that tries to come up with a big sounding word that's coming towards him? Something lik... grr. gro ... ground. yeah ground. And wonder's if it'll be his friend?

edit: I've read many of his novels, but I think that was the most recent.
I believe the next one to come out was night watch, but I haven't picked that one up yet.
EDIT: I jump around, if you didn't notice.
